Abstract

Priests – martyrs of the deanery of Łasin from the time of the Second World War

The deanery of Łasin is marked with the blood of priests, who served there during the Second World War. They were the priesthood of Diocese of Chełm, today known as the Diocese of Toruń, which was the victim of the martyrdom. The witnesses of their deaths are the silent boards located in the churches in the deanery, which force people living nowadays to save sacrafice and memories of the martyrs. The article presents biographical notes about the martyrs from Łasin, Dąbrówka Królewska, Szembruk, Szynwałd, Strzelce i Święte. These described characters and the way in which they were deprived of their lives show the enormous suffering written in the history of Łasin and its neighbourhood.
