In 1944 (I don’t remember an exact date) Czesław Obertyński was taken by the gendarmes from the said house. At first, he was incarcerated in Kielce prison, and then he was executed at the Stadium in Kielce. At the same time, a dozen or so other people were also executed, but I don’t know their surnames.
