Zbylitowska Góra, Village in Tarnów County, Poland

Zbylitowska Góra stands 9 kilometers southwest of Tarnów and 71 kilometers east of Kraków in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship of southern Poland.

The German forces occupied the village in September 1939, later establishing execution sites in the Buczyna forest where 10,000 people lost their lives during 1942-1943.

The memorial site in the Buczyna forest holds annual ceremonies to honor the memory of Jewish and Polish victims who perished during World War II.

Visitors can access the village via regular bus connections from Tarnów, with the memorial site open year-round for those seeking historical understanding.

The Buczyna forest contains mass graves where 6,000 Jewish residents from Tarnów Ghetto, including 800 children from an orphanage, were killed in June 1942.
