Velyki Luchky (Ukrainian: Великі Лучки, Czech: Velké Loučky, Hungarian: Nagylucska, Slovak: Veľké Lúčky) is a village in the Mukachevo Raion (district) in the Zakarpattia Oblast (province) in southwestern Ukraine.
Historically, it was part of the Kingdom of Hungary. Between WWI and WWII, it was part of Carpathian Ruthenia, Czechoslovakia. After WWII, it was part of the Soviet Union.[3]
Velyki Luchky has been part of Ukraine since 1991.
The Jewish population was decimated during WWII.[4] The Jewish community of the village continued up to the mid 70s, when the majority were allowed to leave the Soviet Union and migrated to Israel and the USA.
Velyki Luchky has its own coat of arms with three stalks of corn on a silver background.
