Kryłów ([ˈkrɨwuf]) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Mircze, within Hrubieszów County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine.

[3] The settlement grew up next to the castle, which served as a place of refuge for the local population in case of Tatar raids.

Many Jews had left the village during World War I because of its proximity to the battlefront and moved to larger towns in the Lublin district, particularly Hrubieszów.

In the interwar period the Jewish community continued its traditional crafts and trading in the village.

Many Jews fled across the Bug River into what is now Ukraine but at the time was a part of Poland.
