The Gmina of LubartowThe gmina is located on the Lubartow plain and has a population of about 6000 people, not including the town of Lubartow itself. It was created out of the Lucka and Lisow gminas in 1973 and covers an area of 159 sq.km. About 57% of the land is arable whist 35% is forested, mostly in the southwestern corner of the gmina. It is located on the Lubartow plateau, and the Wieprz river valley forms the eastern part of the region and here there are large areas of meadows and pastures, as well as some wetlands. In the south there is a large forest.
The oldest monument of the gmina is probably Gora Tatarska (Tatar hill), an old fort. The area is well known for its craft skills, particularly dried flower compositions and Easter palms (made of dried grasses). If you fancy building a house here or starting a business, then there are plots available

Lubartow is a town with a population of 24000. It is located on a flat plain on the west bank of the Wieprz river. It was established in 1543 by Piotr Firlej under a founding order issued by King sigismund the old. The original name of the town was Lewartow until 1744. As well as being important economically, it was also a centre of Protestant culture and education. The town was destroyed during the Swedish wars but was able to regain its importance during the 18th century. However, its fortunes waned during the latter part of that century and during the first half of the second under the influence of the partitioning powers. It first belonged to the Austrians, became part of the Warsaw principality and was then handed over to the Russians. In 1838 it was taken away from the Sanguszko family, the then owners, by the Russians. Things started to improve from 1866 onwards when it was made the seat of the 'county', trade improved and craft manufacturers became more prosperous. Many of these were of Jewish descent, and in fact Jews made up a large part of the population until the second world war. In the period immediately before world war one saw the start of some industrialization with the establishment of a brewery, glassworks, cement company and something referred to as an 'electric mill' (either electricity generation or a flour mill powered by electricity).
During the period 1944-89 all the industry was nationalized, and then sold back into private hands in the 1990's. There is a permanent exhibition in the town museum showing the towns past. There is a park with two small lakes in it. There is a late Baroque Palace. The St Anna church is also Baroque, is one of the most beautiful in the region, and was built in 1735. There is a wooden manor house from the 18th century. There is a separate cemetery with its own chapel. Few of the graves date back any earlier than the turn of the century, and most are from the latter half of the 20th century onwards. The older graves may remain as the cemetery has been extended.
