Jasień [ˈjaɕeɲ] (German: Gassen) is a town in Poland, in Lubusz Voivodeship, in Żary County. It has 4,569 inhabitants (2004).[1]
History
During World War II Jasień was the location of the Nazi German slave labour camp KL Gassen, one of nearly one hundred subcamps of Gross-Rosen concentration camp for Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, Czechs, and even Frenchmen, making warplane parts for Focke-Wulf AG. The camp, with around 700 acutely malnourished prisoners, operated from August 1944 until 13 February 1945, when the remaining workforce was sent on a death march to KL Buchenwald ahead of the Soviet advance.[2]
