Dzvyniach (Ukrainian: Дзвиняч; Polish: Dźwiniacz) is a village in Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, Ukraine, in Ivano-Frankivsk Raion. It is the administrative centre of the Dzvyniach rural hromada.[1]
Dzvyniach was first mentioned in 1450 as part of a court case between two members of the szlachta. As a result of the case, the population of Dzvyniach was required to pay tithe from their beekeeping operations, as well as a tenth of their agricultural harvest.[2] During the Khmelnytsky Uprising, residents of Dzvyniach fought under Semen Vysochan . The village also is economically sustained by the Solotvyn salt mine and local ozokerite mines, established by Austrian industrialists in the 19th century.[3]
