History

Kodra was founded in 1600 as a village, and it retained its village status until it was upgraded to that of an urban-type settlement in 1938.[2]

Until 18 July 2020, Kodra belonged to Makariv 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 Makariv Raion was split between Bucha and Fastiv Raions, with Kodra being transferred to Bucha Raion.[3] [4]

On 26 January 2024, a new law entered into force which abolished the status of urban-type settlement, and Kodra became a rural settlement.[5]
