Berestyany (Ukrainian: Берестяни, Polish: Brześciany) is a village (selo) in Sambir Raion, Lviv Oblast, in south-west Ukraine.
The village was first mentioned in 1469. The local Orthodox church was mentioned in 1507. In the interwar period the village belonged to Poland. A Catholic parish was erected in 1920. Before World War 2 Berestyany had around 1,200 inhabitants, one third of them were Poles.[1]
