History
The first written notation regarding Berlohy dates back to 1387. However, people have lived in the area since the 13th century. Village Berlohy is one of the five oldest settlements in the territory Rozhniativ Raion.

Great heritage is in the village that our ancestors left for future generations. These are: the Church of the Nativity, Wonderworking Icon of Our Lady with Jesus, small wooden chapel (1901) and cross which is near the church (that was supplied by the company "Prosvita" in 1978).

Until 18 July 2020, Berlohy belonged to Rozhniativ Raion. It was the biggest settlement in the raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast to six. The area of Rozhniativ Raion was merged into Kalush Raion.
