Zamarstyniv (, ) is one of the boroughs of the city of Lviv in western Ukraine. It is notable as the main site of the infamous Lemberg Ghetto.
==History== thumb|1920s map of Lviv with Zamarstyniv (Zamarstynów) in the far north The name of the modern borough comes from the original village that was founded there in 1423 on German law. The right to locate a village there was granted to certain Stechar and Johann Sommerstein. The latter gave his name to the settlement of Sommersteinshof. With time the name became polonized to Zamarstynów, a name which itself ultimately became ruthenized (ukrainianized) to the modern "Zamarstyniv". Until the 16th century the village belonged to the city of Lviv (then called Lwów) as one of its suburbs. It was not until 1615 that the city finally repaid its debts and Zamarstyniv once again became municipal property. Surrounded by rich turf deposits, Zamarstyniv also provided the nearby city with wood, fruits and vegetables. However, it was pawned to one of the burghers (Zebald Worcel), who in turn sold it in 1567 to Mikołaj Sieniawski, a notable member of the Polish-Lithuanian gentry, magnate and the Field Hetman of the Polish Crown. On February 11, 1695, the village was pillaged by the Tatars, who burnt to the ground a local manor which had belonged to one of Lviv's counsellors, Dominik Wilcze.
