Pogrom in Drohobycz in 1941 in view of Yad Vashem Testimonies

Katarzyna Thomas



Abstract

As in many towns of East Galicia, there were three nationalities living in pre-war Drohobycz: Poles, Jews and Ukrainians. Upon the outbreak of WW II the multi-ethnic relations, which had been relatively good, changed. During the second German occupation, in July 1941, an Ukrainian-led slaughter of Jewish population took place. On the basis of mainly Jewish, post-war testimonies from the Yad Vashem Institute in Jerusalem, the author analyses the causes and the course of pogrom in Drohobycz.
