Ralivka (Ukrainian: Ралівка, Polish: Radłowice) is a village (selo) in Sambir Raion, Lviv Oblast, in south-west Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Ralivka rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1]

On the northern tip of the village, an abandoned Catholic church (from the late 19th century) and an Orthodox church from 1938, are located.[2]

At the end of the 19th century, the village was located in the Sambir County.[3]

In the Second Polish Republic, the village was part of the Sambir County in the Lwów Voivodeship.

Between 1943 and 1944, Ukrainian nationalists from the OUN-UPA brutally murdered 10 Poles here as a part of Volhynia genocide.[4]

In Radłowice, the starosta Kazimierz Lenczewski (1882-1938) was buried.[5]
