History
Until 18 July 2020, Rudnytsia belonged to Pishchanka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Vinnytsia Oblast to six. The area of Pishchanka Raion was merged into Tulchyn Raion.[3][4]
Until 26 January 2024, Rudnytsia was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Rudnytsia became a rural settlement.[5]
