History
editThe settlement was first founded in 1861 as the village of Kenneberg (Ukrainian: Кеннеберг).[2] It was renamed to its current name "Smyha" in 1928, and it acquired the status of an urban-type settlement in 1980.[2]
Until 26 January 2024, Smyha was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Smyha became a rural settlement.[4]
