- Administrative/biographical history:
- The Polish gentry family of the Lubomirskis originated in the village of Lubomierz (Krakow wojewodship). Having blood ties with the wealthiest and most influential families of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (the Zamojskis, Potockis, Radziwiłłs, Tarłos, etc.), the Lubomirskis in the sixteenth-eighteenth centuries occupied top positions in the state administration of the Commonwealth and played an important role in the public, political, and cultural life of the country. In the nineteenth century, moreover, a number of representatives of this family occupied high administrative posts in the Ukrainian provinces of the Russian Empire. In particular, Frederick-Wilhelm Lubomirski (1779-1848) was vice-governor of Volhynia (1816), while Konstantin-Stanislaw Lubomirski (1786-1870) was a marshal of the nobility [predvoditel’ dvorianstva] of the Volhynia province (1841). The Lubomirskis owned numerous estates in Volhynia as well as in the Kiev region and Podolia.
