Ulma's Family Museum of Poles saving Jews in small village Markowa, podkarpckie voivodship in Poland.


Ulma's Family Museum of Poles saving Jews in small village Markowa, podkarpckie voivodship in Poland. Couple with six small children who were killed by the Nazi Germans in 1944 for shelterin. Servants of God Jozef and Wiktoria Ulma, a Polish husband and wife, living in Markowa near Rzeszow in south-eastern Poland during the Nazi German occupation in World War II, were the Righteous who attempted to rescue Polish Jewish families by hiding them in their own home during the Holocaust. They and their children were summarily executed for doing so, like thousands of their Roman Catholic countrymen, along with the Jews they were hiding.
