Описание: Jews were living in Dębica as early as 1673. They settled in Dębica after being banished from the nearby town of Pilzno. At the beginning of the twentieth century there were about 2200 Jews or about 55% of the population. This vibrant small Jewish community was best known for two independent Jewish communities with two separate rabbinates and communal institutions (for Old Dębica and New Dębica). By the late 1930's there were approximately 3300 Jews still living in Dębica. The Jews were lawyers, doctors, teachers, bakers, butchers, and tailors. When the Nazi forces occupied Dębica in 1939 through 1944, the Jews were imprisoned in the local ghetto to perform forced labor in Pustk w and were finally sent to the Belżec death camp. Approximately 13,000 Jews from the Dębica county were murdered in the Holocaust, including about 3000 Jews from the city of Dębica. A few survivors escaped, survived the camps and were hidden by Poles. About 50-100 people survived the war. Their stories along with the rich history of Dębica when it was a living part of world Jewry prior to 1939 are described in this volume. Read the details in the survivors' own words as they remember and bring to life the once vibrant Jewish community of Dębica. Today there are no Jews living in Dębica, Poland. This book serves as a memorial to the Jewish community of Dębica, Poland. It will be of interest to descendants and researchers of the town. Dembitz is located at 50 03' North Latitude and 21 25' East Longitude. Alternate names for the town are: Dębica Polish], Dembitz Yiddish, German], Debitsa, Dembica, Dembits, Dembitsa, Dembiza.
