          Szymon Srebrnik

          Polish-Jewish Holocaust survivor

          Szymon (Shimon, Simon) Srebrnik[1][2] (April 10, 1930 – August 16, 2006) was a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor of the Chełmno extermination camp – a German Nazideath camp established in occupied Poland during World War II.

          Srebrnik escaped after being shot in the back of his head at close range, two days before the Russians arrived in 1945. His testimony along with that of the few other witnesses was critical to the prosecution of camp personnel and other Nazi officials, because of the destruction of evidence by the Germans of their mass extermination of Jews in Chełmno.[2]

          At the age of fifteen, Srebrnik testified in June 1945 in the Polish trial of Chełmno personnel.

          He testified again about Chełmno in the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann in Jerusalem, and in the Chełmno trials in Germany (1962–1965) of the former SS men from the SS Special DetachmentKulmhof.[3]
