There, in July 2020, they used metal detectors to uncover a dense collection of bullet shells, buttons, cuff links, a wristwatch stopped a few minutes after 5 o’clock—and Szydłowska’s wedding ring, which a historian identified based on the wedding date and initials engraved inside. The topsoil held pieces of burned human bone. “We used every possible archaeological method,” Kobiałka says. The evidence convinced him they had found the site of the 1945 massacre.
Researchers also recovered more than 1 ton of human bone. “That amount seems to confirm the historical records that 400 or 500 people were killed and burned” in the 1945 massacre, Kobiałka says. “I’m an experienced archaeologist, but I’ve never experienced anything like this. It was really a horror.”
