Man wearing a suit with a white shirt and a striped tie poses with his head slightly turned to his left shoulder Narrative: Jan Mlynarczyk was recognized as a Righteous Among the Nations in 1990 for his rescue of a Jewish family in a small shtetl named Koszyce (Poland). The seven family members he saved were Tonia Lowenstein, Chana Minzberg, Dina Minzberg, Mania (Miriam) Lowenstein, Hadasa Kaminska Mandelbaum, Asher Mandelbaum and Dina Mandelbaum Spiegel. Mlynarczyk provided false Christian identity papers as well as hiding places for them. They are believed to be the only surviving Jews of their village.
