Mierów (also Mirów ) is a former village in western Ukraine , between Wuslowe ( Вузлове ) and Dmytriw ( Дмитрів ), in Radechiv district of Lviv Oblast .

The village was established in 1785 in the course of the Josephine colonization on the private initiative of Count (HR) Mier , the owner of Radechiv . The Protestants founded a branch congregation of the parish Josefow of the Evangelical Superintendentur AB Galizien . An evangelical church was built in 1868.

In 1900 Mierów had 27 houses with 200 inhabitants, 193 German-speaking, 7 Ruthenian-speaking, 7 Jews and 193 of other faiths.

After the end of the Polish-Ukrainian War in 1919, Mierów came to Poland. In 1921 Mierów had 20 houses with 131 inhabitants, 106 of them Poles, 25 Germans, 129 Evangelicals, 9 Greek Catholics, 2 Roman Catholics.

During the Second World War , the place belonged first to the Soviet Union and from 1941 to the General Government, from 1945 back to the Soviet Union. In March 1944, following a claim by the Ukrainian nationalists that the local Poles would cooperate with Soviet partisans, the place was pacified by the Nazi military police and the Ukrainian police. All farms were burned down and 123 Poles, almost all residents, were killed. The place was not repopulated afterwards.
