Wielkie Oczy [ˈvʲɛlkʲɛ ˈɔt͡ʂɨ] is a village (town until 1935) in Lubaczów County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, in south-eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine.

[1] In 1656 the village was given by wife of hetman Stanisław Rewera Potocki to soldier Andrzej Modrzejowski (later colonel, starosta and podskarbi nadworny koronny) for saving hetman's life.

So that Modrzejowski became almost neighbour and friend of Jan Sobieski (later king of Poland) who lived in Ukrainian Yavoriv at that time.

This decrease in the population was caused by World War I as well as by the cholera epidemic in 1915.

At least 41 Jews were shot at the Jewish cemetery in Wielkie Oczy by the German and Ukrainian Police over the course of several executions that took place mainly in 1943 and 1944.
