Tuchyn (Ukrainian: Tyчин, German: Tutschin, Polish: Tuczyn, Yiddish: טוטשין) is an urban-type settlement in the Rivne Oblast (province) of western Ukraine.
In 1650, the town was owned by the Daniłłowicz family, then later by the Lubomirski's, and finally by the Walewski's from the 18th century to the outbreak of World War II.
The Stanisław Lubomirski foundation erected two wooden churches, cerkwie, in the town in 1711 (Paraskewy) and 1730 (Przemienienia Pańskiego).
When the resistance forces gave the signal, the buildings of the ghetto and the German warehouses at its edge were set ablaze.
The fighting groups opened fire, broke through the ghetto fence, and urged the population to escape.
The uprising ended on Saturday, September 26 when the lead resisters turned themselves into the Germans, unable to withstand the conditions in the nearby forests.
