The Dominion of Lubowla, also known as the Dominion of Lubowla and Podoliniec, was an administrative division of the Eldership of Spisz, that until 1568 belonged to the Kingdom of Poland, and from 1569 to 1772, to the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland, Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Since 1772, it belonged to the Szepes County, Kingdom of Hungary. Its capital was Stará Ľubovňa, and other important towns were Podolínec and Hniezdne.[1] [2]

It was formed on 8 November 1412, during the Spiš Pledge, from the part of the Szepes County, that was pledged from the Kingdom of Hungary to the Kingdom of Poland. In 1569, after the formation of Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, it became a part of Lesser Poland Province, Crown of the Kingdom of Poland. The eldership got conquered by Habsburg monarchy between 1769 and 1770 and remained under occupation until 1772 when it was formally incorporated into the Szepes County, Kingdom of Hungary. After that, it existed as the seat until 1778, when it unified with the Province of 13 Spisz Towns, forming the Province of 16 Szepes Towns.[1] [2]
