History
editUntil 18 July 2020, Koropets belonged to Monastyryska Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Ternopil Oblast to three. The area of Monastyryska Raion was merged into Chortkiv Raion.[5][6]
The classical palace of Count Stanisław Badeni, built in the beginning of the 19th century, is located in the town of Koropets.[7]
Until 26 January 2024, Koropets was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Koropets became a rural settlement.[8]
