It was ceded to Russia in the early 19th cent. It was held by Romania from 1918 to 1940, by the Germans during World War II, and by the Soviet Union after 1944. It was again called by its Slavic name after its incorporation into the USSR. The city has a 15th-century church and the remains of a medieval fortress.
