Rozheve (Ukrainian: Рожеве, German: Rozenburg or Rosenburg, Polish: Rożewo) is a village (selo) in Staryi Sambir Raion, Lviv Oblast, in west Ukraine.
The village was established in the course of Josephine colonization by German Roman Catholic settlers in 1783.[1]
From 1918 to 1939 the village was in Poland. In January 1940 the local German population was moved out (Heim ins Reich), later replaced by Ukrainians.
