Sawrań, as it was called in Polish, was a
private town of the
Koniecpolski and
Lubomirski Polish noble families, The town was annexed by
Russia in the
Second Partition of Poland in 1793. Afterwards, it passed to the Sołtyk and Rzewuski families, and famed Polish explorer, orientalist and horse expert
Wacław Seweryn Rzewuski settled there in the later part of his life. Rzewuski placed a horse stud there and established a
Baghdad-style garden. Until 26 January 2024, Savran was designated
urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Savran became a rural settlement. == Notable people ==
