History

The settlement was founded in 1923 under the name Stergres (Russian: Штергрэс).[1]

In 1938 Stergres got the official status of an urban-type settlement.[1]

In 1965 the urban-type settlement of Stergres and the village of Novopavlovka were merged, and the city of Miusynsk was established.[1]

Starting Mid-April 2014 Miusynsk was controlled by the Luhansk People's Republic and not by Ukrainian authorities.[3][4]
