  • A card from the calendar - Zdzisław and Jadwiga Przybylski with daughter Jadwiga

The caretaker of the tenement house at 6 Pańska Street began battering on the walls. The residents realized in a flash that the Gestapo was approaching. At the same moment, a stranger knocked on the Przybylskis’ door. – Good morning, I’m a Jew, hide me,” the man cast a desperate look. Zdzisław told him to go to his daughter’s bed. – And who is this? – a moment later the German inquired. – My daughter’s husband,” Zdzisław lied hurriedly, and the Gestapo men soon left. Maria and Julia Szlifersztejn also benefited from the Przybylskis’ help. Both survived.
