Dołhobyczów (Polish pronunciation: [dɔwxɔˈbɨt͡ʂuf]; Ukrainian: Довгобичів) is a village in Hrubieszów County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine.[2] It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Dołhobyczów. It lies approximately 28 kilometres (17 mi) south-east of Hrubieszów and 127 km (79 mi) south-east of the regional capital Lublin.
During the January Uprising, a clash between Polish insurgents and Russian troops took place in Dołhobyczów on 3 January 1864.[3]
