An undated pre-war photograph of the Zolynia market square, facing north. The Catholic Church can be seen on a hill in the background.

Another undated photograph of the market square. In the 1930s, one of the buildings behind the children was a candy store. The rock to the left of the children was a small landmark where children would play. It is still in the same place, or nearly in the same place, in the market square today.

Another view of the market square, probably the same time period as the previous image.

This is the pond just off the market square, where the Jewish "mikvah" (ritual baths) were located. The mikvah as it existed in the 1930s is not shown, but one of these buildings may have been a previous mikvah.

This photograph was taken on June 8, 1940, just off of the Zolynia marketplace. Pictured from left to right: Jan Nykiel (a teacher), Jozef Krzanik (a member of the parent-teacher association), Mr. Bernacki (chairman of the parent-teacher association), Wojciech Panek (elected chairman of the village council) and Jan Wroblewski (school headmaster).

Dr. Anton Pajak practiced medicine in Zolynia from the mid-1920s on. Here he is shown in a 1945 photograph.
