The village was founded by Serbian immigrants in the middle of the 18th century, probably from the Serbian village of Moshoryn, and they named the local river Beshka, probably after the village of Beshka in Serbia, where the immigrants could have come from.

It was in this village that the author of the famous Ukrainian folk song "a Cossack went across the Danube" (Semen Klymovsky) lived

In 1772 there were 121 houses.

As of 1886 3359 people lived here. Here were 536 farm households, an Orthodox church, a school, and 9 benches.

During the Holodomor of 1932–1933, at least 26 villagers died. According to the recollections of a local resident, Olena Yermolenko (1913-2002): "Every day in 1933, on my way home from work, I saw people lying by the road from the collective farm, from which the Soviet soldiers took the last bread: adults, old people, children whose after a long period of starvation, the bellies swelled and cracked, and liquid flowed from the cracks. They suffered for several weeks, their bodies were secretly buried outside the village. Several hundred other families in Moshoryne, who had their own farms, were recognized by the government as "kurkuls" and were imprisoned or shot".

In 1943, during the battles of the World War II, according to the recollections of Olena Yermolenko (1913-2002), "cows stood in blood up to the level of their bellies" (the entire surrounding area was smeared with human blood).
