Liubavas () is a village in the Liubavas Eldership, Kalvarija Municipality, Marijampolė County, in southern Lithuania, near the border with Poland.
==History== It was granted town rights by King and Grand Duke Augustus III in 1734. The local parish church was built in 1770. The town was annexed by Prussia in the Third Partition of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795. In 1807, it became part of the short-lived Napoleonic Duchy of Warsaw, and after its dissolution it became part of Russian Congress Poland in 1815. As of 1827, the town had a population of 812. Town rights were revoked in the mid-19th century.
