Dobrucowa is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Tarnowiec, within Jasło County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, in south-eastern Poland. It lies approximately 90NaN0 east of Jasło and 440NaN0 south-west of the regional capital Rzeszów.[1]
Some two thousand Polish Jews were murdered in mass executions at the Dobrucowa Forest in the fall and winter of 1943,[2] on the orders of SS-Hauptsturmführer Amon Göth from Płaszów.[3] They were transported there from the Szebnie concentration camp during camp's murderous liquidation.
