Bukowiec, Wągrowiec County
Bukowiec [buˈkɔvjɛt͡s] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wągrowiec, within Wągrowiec County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 9 kilometres (6 mi) north-east of Wągrowiec and 57 km (35 mi) north-east of the regional capital Poznań.
History
The village was mentioned in a medieval document from 1282, when it was part of Piast-ruled Poland. Bukowiec was a private church village, administratively located in the Kcynia County in the Kalisz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[2]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), on 8 December 1939, the Germans carried out a massacre of 107 Poles in the nearby forest.[3] Among the victims were activists, participants of the Greater Poland uprising (1918–19), teachers, students, farmers and merchants from various settlements from the region.[3] In 1944, the Germans burned bodies of the victims in attempt to cover up the crime (see Nazi crimes against the Polish nation).[4]
