Goworowo is a village in the administrative district of Czerwińsk nad Wisłą, within Płońsk County, Masovian Voivodeship, in east-central Poland.[1] Olympian Kazimierz Suchorzewski was born here.[2]
During the invasion of Poland, a member of the SS-Artillerie-Standarte and an Army Feldgendarme executed 50 Jews in the village. The local German Army commander ordered a court-martial, with the prosecutor demanding the death penalty. The charges were however dropped following intense pressure from Himmler.
