For more than 200 years before World War II, Klobuck had a thriving Jewish community of about 500 families, consisting of nearly 2000 individuals. It was a market town, with a successful mercantile class of trades people, who had created thriving religious, educational, charitable, social and cultural institutions.
On September 1, 1939, the first day of World War II, when the Nazis invaded western Poland, Klobuck was immediately over-run, torched and occupied. The cohesive Jewish society that had exisited for generations was completely eradicated; no Jews have lived in the town since.
The overwhelming majority of the Jewish inhabitants of Klobuck were murdered, starved or worked to death by the Nazis during the Holocaust. Several hundred Jewish Klobuckers survived the War. They made new lives for themeselves, started new families and resettled in Israel, the United States and Europe.
This book contains their beloved memories of their lives before the War. The Rabbis, teachers, and charitable towns people, who helped the sick and poor, are brought back to life. It containts their eye-witness, harrowing, accounts of the six years of horrors and tortures inflicted on them during the Holocaust.
The intent of original Yiddish publication of this Remembrance Book in 1960 was that the stories recounted herein would stand the test of time for all generations. English readers who are descendants of the town and reseachers now have access to this primary source material.
Klobuck Poland is located at 50° 54' North Latitude / 18° 56' East Longitude.
