Luzhany (Ukrainian: Лужани; Romanian: Lujeni; Yiddish: לוזשאן) is a rural settlement in Chernivtsi Raion, Chernivtsi Oblast, western Ukraine.

[2] The settlement lies on the banks of the Prut River, about 13 km (8.1 mi) northwest of the regional capital Chernivtsi.

[4] First mentioned in a 1452 deed, Luzhany belonged to the Danubian Principality of Moldavia until 1774/75, when upon the Russo-Turkish War its northwestern parts (the Bukovina) were ceded to the Habsburg monarchy.

In 1940, as a result of a secret clause of the Molotov–Ribbentrop pact between Hitler and Stalin, the Romanian state was forced to cede Northern Bukovina to the Soviet Union.

In 1968, Luzhany received urban-type settlement status.
