Etymology
The origin of the name of the city of Buryn is unknown, although there are some assumptions. Some associate the ancient Russian city of Byrin, which is mentioned in the "List of Rus Cities Distant and Near" of the XIV century, with Buryn, but this theory is not confirmed by archaeological finds. There is also a version that Buryn was inhabited in the XVII century by migrants from the village of Borynia (now in Lviv Oblast), because even now in Borynia and Buryn live representatives of ancient families: Haiduky (Gaidukov), Siplyvy, Boyko, etc.
History
The first written mention of the village of Borin (in some other handwritten sources also known as Barin) is dated to 1688, as evidenced by the "Heographic Encyclopedic Word" edited by A. F. Trosnikov (Moscow, publishing house "Svetskaya incyclopedia", 1989, p. 88). It was settled by free Cherkasians (so then Muscovites called Ukrainians) on the lands of the lands of The Chaskyi and Osletskyi towns, which were called "wild fields" and belonged to the popes of Church of Nicholas the Wonderworker Velykoretsky in Putyvl.
According to the 6th revision, 1,080 males lived in the church settlement.
Subsequently, Buryn became the sloboda and the center of the Putyvl Volost district of Kursk Province. For 80 years in the XVII century, the village was in the possession of the church, and since 1769 belonged to different landowners.
As of 1862, there were 2,893 people (1,412 men and 1,481 women) living in 360 farms, and there was an Orthodox Church and a school.[3]
In 1869 Putyvl railway station was built, then called Krasne.
At least 90 residents died during the Soviet-organized Holodomor of 1932-1933.[4]
During the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine, Buryn came under Russian occupation on their way towards Konotop, however during the Russian pullout in early April, the city was liberated and is now back under Ukrainian control.
On September 18, 2022, an F3 tornado struck the town, killing one and injuring eight people.[5]
Economy
Among the leading enterprises of the city is PJSC "Buryn Dry Milk Plant", whose products are known not only in Ukraine, but also in Russia, Georgia, and Armenia. 124 thousand tons of products can be placed on the Buryn scale. This is one of the largest enterprises of the district, which works steadily.
