History.
The village was collectivized in 1931-1932, and electricity was brought to it in 1964. 220 residents of the village had fought in World War II, of which 100 died and there is a World War II memorial in the village to honour the dead. In 1920 the village had a population of 400, but by 1987, the number had dropped to 198 villagers, with all of them being Armenian.
The village was part of the Hadrut District of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast during the Soviet period, and was captured by Armenian forces during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War on October 2, 1992 and remained a part of Hadrut Province of the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh. Çaylaqqala, Hin Tagher and Katarovank became an Artsakh holdout in the Hadrut Province during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war. Clashes erupted around the Armenian holdout pocket despite the ceasefire agreement, and it was reported that Hin Tagher was captured by Azerbaijan on 12 December, with some clashes continuing in the area. Russian peacekeepers arrived to the area on 13 December 2020. Subsequently, it was reported that Hin Tagher and Chaylaggala came under Azerbaijani control as Russian peacekeepers removed the area from their map of responsibility on 14 December 2020.
