The massacres in Piasnica place in Poland

Piasnica, Poland 19th, September 2015 Piasnica forest near Wejherowo, northern Poland. The massacres in Piasnica were a set of mass executions carried out by Germans, during World War II, between the fall of 1939 and spring of 1940. The exact number of people murdered estimates range between 12,000 and 14,000 victims. Most of them were Polish intellectuals from Pomerania, but Poles, Jews, Czechs and German inmates from mental hospitals from General Government and the Third Reich were also murdered. After the Stutthof concentration camp, Piasnica was the largest site of killings of Polish civilians in Pomerania by the Germans. It was the first large scale Nazi atrocity in occupied Poland.
