In 1944, 7 people were murdered. NN „In 1944, 7 people were murdered, including the s/o a forester; the names could not be determined. One of them was murdered in the basement. They tore his mouth from ear to ear, saying that he would have Poland from sea to sea. He prayed before that, so they cut his tongue out and gouged out his eyes. They tormented him two days, then they drove him outside the village and dumped him in a trench where he was found and buried”.
