Pidhorodna railway station was built in 1899. It belonged to
Yelisavetgradsky Uyezd of
Kherson Governorate. On 16 April 1920, Kherson Governorate was renamed Nikolayev Governorate, and on 21 October 1922, it was merged into
Odessa Governorate. In 1923, uyezds in
Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic were abolished, and the governorates were divided into
okruhas. Bohopil Raion of
Pervomaisk Okruha was established, and Pidhorodna railway station was included into Bohopil Raion. In 1925, the governorates were abolished, and okruhas were directly subordinated to Ukrainian SSR. In 1927, Bohopil Raion was renamed Pervomaisk Raion. In 1930, okruhas were abolished, and raions were directly subordinated to Ukrainian SSR. On 27 February 1932,
Odessa Oblast was established, and Pervomaisk Raion was included into Odessa Oblast. On 17 February 1954, Pervomaisk Raion was transferred to Mykolaiv Oblast. In 1960, Pidhorodna was granted
urban-type settlement status. On 26 January 2024, a new law entered into force which abolished the status of urban-type settlement status, and Pidhorodna became a rural settlement. ==Economy==
