Село Веприк розташоване в 5 кілометрах на захід від Фастова.
На території хутора Млинки збереглося давнє городище скіфських часів (IX сторіччя до нашої ери - IV сторіччя нашої ери).
Вперше в документах село згадується в 1455 році як селище Веприн, подароване київським князем Олельком Володимировичем своєму другові Олехну Сохновичу серед інших маєтностей на берегах Ірпеня. Назва пов'язана з тим, що в цих місцях водилося багато вепрів, на яких полювали давньоруські князі.

Khutir Mlynok
Archaeological site
Khutir Mlynok appeared near Vepryk in the 17th-18th centuries, when miller Demyan Tsukrenko built a water mill here on the Kyrsha River at its confluence with Irpin.
However, settlements in this place have existed since ancient times, starting with the Neolithic (XII-X centuries BC), as evidenced by archaeological findings. The fortifications of the later Scythian settlement of the VI-V centuries BC have been preserved. A rampart 1.5 kilometers long, 5 meters high, up to 25 meters wide with a 2-meter-deep moat protects an area of about 40 hectares. This is one of the largest Scythian settlements in Kevshchyna. In section, the shaft can be seen right at the entrance to the farm, next to the original wooden gate and watchtower.
A chapel of the Immaculate Image of Jesus Christ and Theodore Icon of the Mother of God was built on the bank of the reservoir.
