history

The first mention of the place, which was owned by the Premonstratensian Order at that time , comes from the year 1232. In 1423 Dąbie received town charter and became a royal town.

After the second partition of Poland in 1793, Dąbie became Prussian and was part of South Prussia . In 1807 the city was part of the Duchy of Warsaw and from 1815 it belonged to the Kingdom of Poland . Several weaving mills were established here in the 19th century. In 1864, fighting with insurgents took place in the city. During the First World War Dąbie was destroyed in 1915 in fighting between German and Russian troops. In 1933 the city was connected to the railway network , but the railway line runs 3 km east of the city.

In 1939 the place was occupied by the German armed forces during the attack on Poland . During the occupation that lasted until 1945 , the name of the town was changed to Eichstädt by the German administration ; the synagogue was largely destroyed.

Before the occupation began, around 1,100 Jews lived in the city. In 1941 a ghetto was set up for the remaining Jews . This also served to select Jews brought from the Łódź ghetto , so the exact number of people living there is unknown. In December of the same year, all ghetto residents were taken to the nearby Kulmhof extermination camp and mainly murdered in gas vans .

In mid-January 1945, the German occupiers fled from the Red Army , which was approaching unexpectedly quickly as part of the Vistula-Oder operation and liberated the town on January 21, 1945.

The ruins of the synagogue fell into increasingly disrepair after 1945; In 1961 the building was renovated and converted into a residential building.
