      A Riemannian manifold is called locally conformally homogeneous if for any point \(x\) of the manifold and any tangent vector \(v\) at \(x\) there is a conformally Killing vector field near \(x\) such that it equals \(v\) at \(x\). The authors prove that a locally conformally homogeneous manifold is either conformally flat and its Weyl tensor vanishes or conformally equivalent to a locally homogeneous manifold and its Weyl tensor does not vanish.
