History

In 1874, near the village Novooleksiivka (now Oleksyivka village), a small railway station, also called Novooleksiivka, was founded. At the same time, a station settlement of the same name arose around the station, which then became a major settlement. As the cargo turnover of the station was small, the population of Novooleksiivka was mainly engaged in agriculture. It was a part of the Dniprovsky district of the Tavriya Governorate at that time.

In 1908, the first school was built at Novooleksiivka at the expense of local peasants, where 2 teachers were employed and 64 pupils were engaged. In 1930, a sovkhoz fruit-producing farm was built, whose main activity was the production, harvesting, storage, processing and sale of seeds.[3]

Religion

There is an orthodox church, the Protection of Our Most Holy Lady Theotokos, a mosque, the Adzhy Belial Dzhami mosque.[4]
