      History


      Until 18 July 2020, Chornobai served as an administrative center of Chornobai Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four. The area of Chornobai Raion was merged into Zolotonosha Raion.
      Until 26 January 2024, Chornobai was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Chornobai became a rural settlement.
