The first mention of the town dates from 1595. The owner of the town, Moldavian hospodar Ieremia Movilă bestowed it as a dowry gift to his daughter, who married into the Potocki family of Polish nobility. At that time, the groom named the town Mohyliv in honor of his father-in-law. In the first quarter of the XVIIth century, Mohyliv became one of the largest towns in Podolia.
