Wielkie Oczy, Village in Lubaczów County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, Poland.

Wielkie Oczy is a village in the Subcarpathian Voivodeship near the Ukrainian border. The settlement consists of scattered houses and agricultural land characteristic of rural eastern Poland.

The village was established in 1656 when soldier Andrzej Modrzejowski received it as a reward for military service. It developed into a settlement where different groups lived together for generations.

The Jewish population represented over half of the total residents in 1880, with 996 people maintaining their traditions and religious practices.

The village is located in a rural area and is best reached by car. Historical records from the 1800s are available through genealogical databases for those researching family history.

During World War II, the village experienced significant demographic changes when German and Ukrainian police executed 41 Jewish residents at the local cemetery.
