HistoryEdit

File:1926 Pabianice ul Warszawska.jpg
Pabianice in the interbellum

Pabianice was established in the 10th or 11th century, and was part of early Piast-ruled Poland. In 1297, Władysław I Łokietek granted town rights. Pabianice was a private church town, administratively located in the Szadek County in the Sieradz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> In 1555, Polish King Sigismund II Augustus issued a privilege, which established craft guilds in Pabianice.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

Church of Saint Mary, the town's largest church

Before World War II, Pabianice had a substantial Jewish population, comprising about a quarter of all residents of the town. Jews had been living in the town since the 1700s. Following the German invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the town was under German occupation. As part of the Intelligenzaktion, in late 1939, the Germans carried out mass arrests of local Polish intelligentsia, who were initially imprisoned in a local transit camp and the nearby Radogoszcz concentration camp, and then either deported to other concentration camps or mostly murdered in nearby forests.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> Local Polish teachers and activists were murdered by the Germans during large massacres in the nearby Łagiewniki forest (within today's city limits of Łódź) in November and December 1939.<ref>Wardzyńska (2009), p. 204</ref> The Germans also expelled around 1,000 Poles from the town in December 1939.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> Under German occupation nearly the entire Jewish population was murdered. Some were murdered in the town, several thousand were sent to the Chełmno extermination camp where they were immediately gassed, and others were expelled to Łódź and to forced labour camps in the area. Only about 150 survived of the 9,000 Jews thought to be living in Pabianice at the start of the war. For more on the wartime experience see Megargee.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> The German occupation ended in 1945.
