==History== thumb|left|Krasnobród Sanatorium, formerly the House of Leszczyński|Leszczyński Palace The name of the town comes from the Old Polish krasny bród, which in English means "beautiful ford". According to records, in the mid-16th century the village of Krasnobród was owned by the noble Lipski family. In either 1572 or 1576, it received town charter. At that time, Krasnobród was located near the boundary between Chełm Land (part of its Ruthenian Voivodeship) and the Bełz Voivodeship, both within the Lesser Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. Across centuries, it remained a private town, owned by several prominent families such as the Leszczyński's, the Zamoyski's, the Tarnowski's and the Jackowski's. Its last owners were the Fudakowski family. Due to location away from main thoroughfares, Krasnobród remained a small town and never turned into an important economic hub.
