The Lviv pogroms were the consecutive massacres of Jews in June and July 1941 in the city of Lwów in Eastern Poland/Western Ukraine . The massacres were perpetrated by Ukrainian nationalists , German death squads, and local crowds from 30 June to 2 July, and from 25 to 29 July, during the German invasion of the Soviet Union. Thousands of Jews were killed both in the pogroms and in the Einsatzgruppen killings.
Ukrainian nationalists targeted Jews in the first pogrom on the pretext of them being purportedly responsible for the NKVD prisoner massacre in Lviv, which left behind thousands of corpses in three Lviv prisons. The subsequent massacres were directed by the Germans in the context of the Holocaust in Eastern Europe. The pogroms were ignored or obfuscated in Ukrainian historical memory, starting with OUN's actions to purge or whitewash its own record of anti-Jewish violence. In 2016, a memorial was erected commemorating the victims of the pogrom on the site of the former Golden Rose Synagogue.
