Makiyivka was founded in 1690 under the name Yasinovka, as a Cossack settlement. In 1777, the free settlement was reorganized into a military settlement by order of the tsarist government. It was first mentioned in documents at that time.<ref name="EOU">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation

It increased production of rolled steel 1.56-fold to over 700,000 tons in the January–July period of 2006, compared with the corresponding period of last year. It aims to increase its sales revenues to ₴1.265 billion in 2006.
