Tuchowicz

Tuchowicz [tuˈxɔvit͡ʂ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Stanin, within Łuków County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland.

[1] Tuchowicz belongs to historic Lesser Poland, and for centuries it was part of Łuków Land, Lublin Voivodeship.

On 26 June 1430, King Wladyslaw Jagiello granted Magdeburg rights to the village, allowing for two fairs (July 22 and October 16).

Tuchowicz remained a small town, losing its charter probably in the late 18th century.

In the 19th century, this former town belonged to the Hempel family, which controlled it until 1945.
