Summary/Abstract: This article presents the scholarly activity of two generations of researchers focusing on Roman law, associated professionally with the Lviv university in the interwar period. First, it shows the attainments of Leon Piniński and Marceli Chlamtacz. Then, it focuses on the attainments of a younger generation of Lviv scholars, including Wacław Osuchowski and Edward Gintowt. The presentation of the activities of these scholars made it possible to demonstrate the scholarly potential of the Lviv interwar Romanist community, which was one of the leading centers of research on Roman law in interwar Poland, if not the most important one.
