Results of multicolor UBVRI polarimetry of 14 Herbig Ae/Be stars including 7 stars for which observations of polarization have been made for the first time are presented. 6 bright Herbig Ae/Be stars which belong to the star formation region connected with IC 5070 show polarization from 1 to 4.5 per cent with similar θ (≡180°). The polarimetric variability of BD +46°3471, BD +65°1637, HD 200775 and LkHα 234 is confirmed. Mechanisms of polarization in Herbig Ae/Be stars in circumstellar formations are discussed.
