Łomazy [wɔˈmazɨ] is a village in Biała Podlaska County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland.

[2][3] Following the First World War Łomazy became part of the Lublin Voivodeship (1919–39) in the reborn sovereign Second Polish Republic.

Poverty and hunger contributed to the growing tensions between Christians and Jews split in half evenly by population numbers, which in turn led to a disturbance in May 1934 requiring police intervention.

[4] During the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union at the onset of World War II, Łomazy was taken over by the Red Army and passed on to the Germans in the Nazi-Soviet boundary treaty.

[6] After the war, a group of Jews returned to excavate the bodies and provide proper burials, and a memorial was erected at the site commemorating the perished Jewish citizens of the town.
