History
The rapid development of the city began at the end of the XIX century, when the railway was built here, making Vorozhba a major railway junction. Here the Vorozhba-Khutir-Mykhailivsky narrow-gauge railway functioned, which was in 1915 rebuilt into a broad gauge. Soon the settlement grew around the station. At the end of the XIX century there were almost 600 residents.
