On the territory of the city, archaeologists have unearthed some Neolithic tools, and on the outskirts of the city Scythian-Sarmatian barrows stand proudly (this indicates that people lived here for a long time). By 1594, the first written mention of Shepetovka dates back - at that time the possession of Andrei Zhdarsky and the territory of the Kremenets district of the Volyn voivodeship.

The city often suffered from the devastating and destructive attacks of the Tatar Horde. Residents of Shepetovka took an active part in the national liberation struggle of the Ukrainian people led by Bogdan Khmelnytsky. The city was destroyed by fire in 1649 by troops under the command of the Belz governor - which led to the decline of Shepetovka. In the same year, Dominik Zaslavsky became the owner of the city, and from 1673 - the princes Lubomirsky, later - Sangushki (they founded the first cloth factory in the town and opened medical baths on the basis of mineral springs), and since 1859 - the magnates Pototsky, who owned them until 1917. According to the second partition of Poland, Shepetovka became part of the Russian Empire, and since 1896 it became a volost center. Since 1843, a sugar factory started operating in the city, and three years later, a refinery, the post office and telegraph began operating in 1888. Subsequently, a sawmill and a district hospital began to operate, a brick and tile factories were built, an enterprise for the production of resin and turpentine, and quarries expanded. . Education did not lag behind: there were schools, a parochial school, an Orthodox church, a church, a synagogue, and a printing house (opened in 1912).

Shepetovka suffered significant losses during the events of the First World War, as it ended up in the front line. Further, the power in the city changed several times (the Central Rada, the Soviet government, the Directory, the troops of Symon Petlyura, the UNR, again the Bolsheviks). Shepetivka in 1923 officially became a city. The inhabitants of the city suffered great losses from the Holodomor of 1932 - 1933, and the repressions of 1937 - 1938. In those years, Shepetovka was part of the Kamenetz-Podolsk region. Also, the destructive and terrible events of the Second World War did not bypass the city: the Nazi occupation, execution, concentration camps, hard labor.
