Służewo, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship


Służewo is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Aleksandrów Kujawski, within Aleksandrów County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-central Poland. It lies south-west of Aleksandrów Kujawski and south of Toruń.
The village has a population of 1,180. Before the war, it had a Jewish population of about 250. After several years of persecution during the German occupation, including many sent to slave labor camps, the remaining Jews in the town were rounded up in April 1942, held in a local church for several days, then deported to the Chelmno killing camp where they were gassed. There were only two Jewish survivors from Służewo.
