Uhrusk [ˈuxrusk] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wola Uhruska, within Włodawa County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine.[1]
The village has a Roman-Catholic cemetery right next to DW816. There is also an Orthodox Church of the Dormition of the Mother of God, situated on the outskirts of the village,[2] on a low, flat elevation where, in the Middle Ages, a fortified settlement was established by Daniel of Galicia.[3]
