Słobódka is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Narewka, within Hajnówka County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland, close to the border with Belarus.[1] It lies approximately 13km (08miles) north of Narewka, 270NaN0 north-east of Hajnówka, and 420NaN0 south-east of the regional capital Białystok.
Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the village was first occupied by the Soviet Union until 1941, and then by Germany until 1944. In September 1941, the German Police Battalion 322 expelled the entire population, and then plundered and destroyed the village.[2] One woman was murdered during the expulsion, and one man was deported to the Stutthof concentration camp and murdered there.[2] The purpose of the expulsion was to hinder the activities of the resistance movement in the area.[2] After the war the village was rebuilt.
