History
Krychaw is first mentioned in chronicles under the year 1136. In the Middle Ages, it was part of the Principality of Smolensk and Grand Duchy of Lithuania.[3] In 1440, Casimir IV Jagiellon granted it to Prince Lengvenis.[3] During the Lithuanian–Muscovite War of 1507–1508, Stanisław Kiszka defeated Muscovite invaders there in 1507.[3] In 1535, it was burned down by Muscovite invaders.[3] Afterwards it was quickly rebuilt being vested with various royal privileges, especially by King Władysław IV Vasa in 1634 and 1637.[3] The privileges were confirmed by King John II Casimir Vasa in 1650, and further Kings afterwards.[3] During the Polish–Russian War of 1654–1667, in 1664, it was the place of a battle between the Poles and the Russian invaders.[3] King Charles XII of Sweden stopped in the town following his defeat in the Battle of Poltava during the Great Northern War.[3]
During World War II, the town was occupied by Nazi Germany from July 1941 to September 1943. The occupiers operated a prison forced labour camp in the town.[4]
The Soviet Air Force Krichev Air Base was located east of Krychaw during the Cold War.
