Until the Second partition of Poland Szpików was part of the Bracław Voivodeship of the Lesser Poland Province of the Polish Crown. It was a small town, owned by the houses of Ostrogski, Zamoyski, Koniecpolski, Potocki and Świejkowski. Leonard Marcin Świejkowski built a Baroque palace in Szpików.
From 1793 to 1917 it was a town in Bratslav uyezd in Podolian Governorate of the Russian Empire. It formerly had a significant Jewish community, which numbered 1,875 in 1900. In January 1989, the population was 4,285 people In January 2013, the population was 3,355 people.

Although many of the Slavic-language equivalents to this template equate this template to the borders of the old Tulchyn Raion prior to the 2020 administrative reform, this is linked with the modern borders, as the English[REDACTED] has integrated all 2020 Raion reformation into the modern-day raion articles given that the raion article depicts a Raion that was expanded and not integrated into another. Given that, this template contains far more villages than many of the other languages have, as it includes the acquired territory post-2020.
