In the 10th-11th centuries, there was an ancient Rus settlement of Myriv at this place. According to legends, Myriv was completely destroyed during the Tatar invasion, and the inhabitants who remained alive moved the settlement to the place of the present Nemyriv.

Добре збережене велике ранньоскіфське Немирівське городище "Великі вали" (або "Скіфські вали") VII-VI сторічь до нашої ери знаходиться на обох берегах на річки Устя за 5 кілометрів на південний схід від Немирова.

Площа Немирівського городища становить близько 150 гектарів. Оточене земляним валом завдовжки 5,5 кілометрів, висотою до 9 метрів, з глибоким ровом. У північній частині розташоване замчище. На території "Скіфських валів" виявлено залишки поглибленого житла.

В Х-ХІ століттях на цьому місці існувало давньоруське поселення Мирів. За переказами, Мирів був повністю знищений під час татарської навали, а мешканці, що залишилися живими, перенесли поселення на місце нинішнього Немирова.
