  ... of the Jewish settlement is likewise unknown. It must be assumed that during the reign of Casimir the Great, in the 14th century, when Jews found refuge in Poland from persecution in Western Europe, they fanned out in its fertile plains and settled along the shores of the Vistula. It is claimed that the cemetery contained monuments (uprooted by the Nazis during their occupation of the town) that bore names of Jews who died some 400-500 years ago. The accuracy of this claim was not established and actual names of deceased arc not available. What is known for certain is that a scries of major fires took place in the 90's of last century. The most damaging one was that in 1898, which caused the central part of town to burn down. The townhall went up in flames and with it all documents that ...

  ... Galicia was divided into 3 regions, and our town belonged to the Tarnopol region, in which was situated the headquarters of the Gestapo for the entire region. Kreishauptmann Asbach was put at the head of our towns administration and the Sonderdlenst Police was put at his disposal As soon as he arrived in town he ordered Dr. Klarer to appear before him together with 23 men. I was one of them. I shall never forget this meeting. We entered as free men and left as the "Judenrat'* (Jewish Coun-cil), responsible collectively for any disdain or opposition punishable by death.

The Kreishauptmann ordered ...

The teachers of Hebrew in town had a great influence in spreading the Hebrew word and the Zionist idea, which were closely tied with each other. The Zionist movement grew from year to year and there were a number of Zionist organizations in our town even before the First World War. In 1917 the youth movement "Hashomer", was founded in Brzezany. it's local head was M. Fried, follows by Mr. Bergman.

  ... all those who helptmeand supported my work and assisted in the materialization of this task - first and formost Dr. Eliezer Szaklai-Wagszal my thanks and appreciation. May this book serve as a memorial to the Jewish people and to the community of Brzezany, which fell victim to forces of darkness of Nazi Germany. May this book also serve as an eternal memory to the coming generation - a light to our youth which is renewing our existence as a free people in our home-land, and a warning to those of our people dispersed in the diaspora, who have not yet drawn the obvious conclusion from our tragic past. Editor - Menachem Katz Haifa, April 1978 7
