LUBĀNA, a town (since 1992) in the Madona District (Republic of Latvia). In the 19th and early 20th centuries it belonged to the Wenden District of the Governorate of Livonia. From 1918 to 1940 it formed part of the Republic of Latvia, and from 1940 to 1991 of the Latvian SSR.

In 1925 four Jews lived in Lubāna; in 1930, forty-one; and in 1935, fifty-three.

All the Jews of Lubāna were murdered in the autumn of 1941.
