Podcast appearances and mentions of jan zabinski

Warschau, 1939. De dierentuin van Antonina en Jan Zabinski loopt gevaar wanneer de Duitsers op 1 september 1939 bombardementen uitvoeren. Samen behoeden ze honderden voor de nazi's.

Hear how the Żabiński family saved the lives of countless Jews during the Nazi German occupation.   In September 1939, Nazi Germany began their infamous invasion of Poland and occupied the country shortly thereafter, thus marking the beginning of the Second World War. Amidst all the destruction and loss of human, a nearly unbelievable act of selflessness proved to be a light of humanity that shone through the darkness and desolation of war in, of all places, a zoo. In this episode, our hosts discuss the remarkable story of Jan and Antonina Żabiński and the Warsaw Zoo. How was this formerly prosperous zoo transformed into a shelter for Jewish refugees escaping the brutality of the Nazis? How was Jan Żabiński able to travel in and out of the Warsaw Ghetto and save so many Jewish people in the process? How were the Żabińskis able to avoid being discovered? Most importantly, what can Jan and Antonina’s daring act of humanity teach us about compassion, altruism, and selflessness? Like our show? Sign up for our newsletter!
