In the late morning on 8 December 1942, residents of Wola Brzostecka heard an explosion and gunfire. The Germans had discovered the forest hideout of the Jewish Fisch family. Six months earlier, the Fisch family – Sara Hena, her children Ruchla, Fejga, Rojza and Moj\u017cesz, and granddaughter Estera – had fled Brzostek and found shelter in the home of local farmers Jan and Bronis\u0142awa Janto\u0144. Three months later, when the situation grew dangerous, the Fisch family moved into a dugout in the nearby forest. Jan and Bronis\u0142awa continued to bring them food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Germans shot the Jews they found on the spot and murdered Jan Janto\u0144, who had just brought food to the hideout. Four children were made fatherless as a result.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Germans ordered the bodies of the victims to be buried in the forest. To this day they remain there in a common grave.\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1408","miejsce","type-miejsce","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wystawazpi.instytutpileckiego.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/miejsce\/1408","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wystawazpi.instytutpileckiego.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/miejsce"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wystawazpi.instytutpileckiego.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/miejsce"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wystawazpi.instytutpileckiego.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
