Until the end of the X century, this place, like the whole present Khreshchatyk, was called Perevisysche and was a swamp. Where Sofiyska Street now begins, there was the Lyadska Gate, which led to the Upper Town.
In the 18th century, stone fortress walls and the so-called Pechersk Gate were built on the territory of the Maidan, which existed until 1833. In the late XVIII - early XIX century was a wasteland - the so-called Goat Swamp. Defensive ramparts approached it, the edge of which was filled with a dam and a water mill.
In the 1730s, the first wooden houses appeared here, and in the 1850s - stone houses. In 1869 the place was named Khreshchatyk Square. Until 1871 there was a market on the square, circus performances and festivities took place.
