History

Mateyivtsi was first mentioned in 1764.[2] As of 1939, the village had a population of 1,050, according to Volodymyr Kubijovyč. Of these, 950 were Ukrainians, 60 were Polish people, 30 were Jews, and 10 were Latynnyky.[3]

There is a wooden church in the village, known as the Church of the Intercession. It was constructed in 1834 as a replacement for the original (possibly built in 1695).[4]
