Lozova was founded in the late 1860s[4] as a settlement in Kharkov Governorate of the Russian Empire.[5][6]

During the Russian Civil War it was occupied by German troops from April 1918 until November 1918.[4]

A local newspaper has been published in Lozova since August 1929.[7]

During World War II it was under German occupation from October 11, 1941 to September 16, 1943.[4]

After liberation, the city was completely restored. In 1953 there were four high schools, two libraries, one House of Culture and one stadium.[8]

In 1972 the population was 38.8 thousand people.[5]

In January 1989 the population was 72,991 people.[9][4]

The city was evacuated on August 27, 2008 due to a fire in an arsenal. However, there were no serious casualties or deaths.

In January 2013 the population was 58,307 people.[10]

Until 18 July 2020, Lozova was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Lozova Municipality.
