Russian Interior Minister Vyacheslav von Plehve published a list of villages in which Jews were given "permission" to live, one of which was Sarny. Sarny became a focal point of the settlement of Russian Jews, commencing as of 1903, following the pogroms at Kishinev, when Sarny was under Russian rule. Lumber manufacturing also became an important and growing industry in Sarny, given that it was surrounded by forests. These municipalities were distinguished by the extent to which they were associated with manufacturing and markets, including being points for the concentration of agricultural produce for export. Sarny was one of a series of towns and cities designated as railway station locations at key area boundaries. Concurrently, a large locomotive depot was constructed and Sarny became a centre of railroad activity, resulting in a need for construction of new housing for railway employees. It became an important junction between railways of Rivne- Luninets and Kovel- Korosten, particularly after the construction of a railroad station in 1901, tied to the rail line linking Kyiv to Kovel, which was known as "the southwest line" and which now joined "the Polesia line". The railway reached Sarny in 1885, which was the same year that Sarny was formally constituted as a city. It later became part of the estate of General Felix Dzerzhinsky.
From 1795 it was considered a part of the Russian Empire, as part of the Volhynian Governorate. It was later annexed by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, followed by the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Sarny was a part of the Kingdom of Halych-Volhynia.
Its name is derived from the word "serna", referring to the wild goats that roamed freely in the area at the time. Sarny at its outset was a small village on the Polesia-Wolhyn border, located between forests and swamps. It is the administrative center of Sarny Raion ( district), and is a major railway node on the Sluch River. Sarny ( Ukrainian: Сáрни), translated as Does, is a small city in Rivne Oblast ( province) of western Ukraine.
