Łyskornia

Łyskornia [wɨsˈkɔrɲa] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Biała, within Wieluń County, Łódź Voivodeship, in south-central Poland. It lies approximately 14 kilometres (9 mi) west of Wieluń and 94 km (58 mi) south-west of the regional capital Łódź.

History

In 1827, Łyskornia had a population of 355.

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1940, the German gendarmerie expelled the entire population of Łyskornia. Expelled Poles were either enslaved as forced labour in the region or deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland. Their houses and farms were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.
