Zosin is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Horodło, within Hrubieszów County in Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine. It is best known for its position on the frontier: the meander of the River Bug near the village marks the easternmost point of Poland, at a longitude of about 24 degrees 8 minutes 42 seconds east. A border crossing into Ukraine is located at Zosin, and across the border lies the Ukrainian village of Ustyluh. The village is therefore a small rural settlement whose importance comes from the river boundary and the crossing, which links the Lublin region of Poland with the neighbouring Volyn area of Ukraine. The record here is deliberately limited to what the source states: the administrative placement, the river meander, the extreme point and the border crossing.
