life and death

Until the German invasion of Poland , he lived in the Masovian Voivodeship , was married and had a son. In 1941 Marian Abramski ended up as a forced laborer on a farm in Briedel on the Moselle. In November 1941, the single peasant woman reported him to the Gestapo for allegedly trying repeatedly to rape her . He was then arrested on November 22, 1941 on suspicion of attempted rape, refusal to work and other offenses. On April 15, 1942, the Reich Main Security Office decided that Abramski should be killed, which, as was customary at the time, was referred to with the euphemistic term " special treatment ". The execution took place on July 3, 1942 at 11 a.m. not far from Briedel by hanging on a mobile gallows . Two Polish prisoners who were supervised by Gestapo officers were used as executioners. Abramski's body was brought to the Anatomical Institute of the University of Bonn .

The execution caused considerable resentment among the local population, so that four days later the Gestapo Koblenz even requested a “mood report ” from the district administrator of the district of Zell , which was presented on July 19 and is preserved in the Koblenz main archive. It says u. a .:

“The general excitement of the population, especially in Briedel, was very great. (…) The entire mood is directed against the woman, and it has been said on various occasions that the woman should have been hung up as well. Others portray the complaint as an act of revenge by the woman, as it only reported about six months after the Pole tried, after he was said to have become negligent in his work because of the rejection of her sexual wishes.

Abramski's fate was documented by the Friends of the Memorial for the Victims of National Socialism in Koblenz as part of the exhibition Preserving memories - slave and forced laborers of the Third Reich from Poland 1939–1945 .
