Frystzak was a village in the southwest region of the Lwow district. The Germans occupied the town on September 8, 1939, and a Judenrat was appointed shortly thereafter. A Ghetto was created in June, 1942 and liquidated on August 18, 1942. The Ghetto population amounted to about 1,600 persons. They worked at building roads and in stone quarries.
