[edit] History

Sarny was a part of the Kingdom of Halych-Volhynia. It was later annexed by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, followed by the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. From 1795 it was considered a part of the Russian Empire, as part of the Volyn Guberniya. In 1921, the city was ceded to Poland by the USSR, which reclaimed it in 1939. It was further occupied by Nazi Germany in 1941, and again reclaimed by Soviet forces in 1944. Since 1991, it has been a part of Ukraine.
