Abstract
This document is part of a series of interviews with former prisoners of Nazi concentration camps. The interviews were conducted in 1945-1946 by the Polish Research Institute in Lund.
On 8 February 1940, the witness was arrested in Miechów for delivering underground newspapers. After two hours of interrogations, he was transferred to a prison where Poles served as guards. The next day, he was transported to Cracow´s Montelupich jail. After arriving at Montelupich, he was beaten and interrogated again. He was seriously injured as a result of the brutal treatment in prison. For six weeks, he was put into solitary confinement. By the summer of 1940, the witness was transferred to Auschwitz. He also was interned at the concentration camps in Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora where he was forced to hard labour.
Notes
About the collection: At the end of World War II approximately 20,000 Nazi concentration camp prisoners were evacuated to Sweden. Many of them were Polish citizens. In order to document their experiences, Zygmunt Łakociński founded the Polish Research Institute in Lund. The collection contains 512 in-depth interviews with survivors, materials that they brought with them to Sweden, and also other material that the institute collected, compiled, and created.
