History
In the "History of the Fates of the Pereyaslav Diocese" it was noted that Glanyshiv arose as a settlement in 1513. During the Cossack period the village belonged to the first Pereyaslav hundred - an administrative-territorial and military unit - of the Pereyaslav regiment of the Zaporozhian Army. In 1755, Count Cyril Razumovski restored the third Pereyaslav Hundred which included Glanyshiv.
On 25 August 1941, it was occupied by Nazi German troops, and the population that left the occupied area.
Until 18 July 2020, Glanyshiv belonged to Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi Raion was merged into Boryspil Raion.
