Chornyi Ostriv was first founded in 1366, and it received the Magdeburg rights in 1556.[5] Since 1957, it has the status of an urban-type settlement.
Until 26 January 2024, Chornyi Ostriv was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Chornyi Ostriv became a rural settlement.[6]
