Abstract
The paper presents functioning of the camp in Zwierzyniec during the Second World War. It focuses on the period from January to August 1943 when the displacement of Zamojszczyzna population took place. The article depicts main assumptions and results of Generalplan Ost and Wherwolf I action, and the role that the transit camp in Zwierzyniec played in those actions. The author shows the camp organisation during the displacements, living conditions of the prisoners and the camp garrison as well as efforts of Polski Komitet Opiekuńczy, especially those made by Jan Zamoyski, to rescue the youngest children. Statistics included in the paper attempt to show the realistic number of people gathered in the camp and the number of possible deaths during the specified period of time.Artykuł nie zawiera abstraktu w języku polski
