History
In 1866 local Poles built the first school in Pantalowice.[2]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in December 1942, the Germans murdered six Poles, three men and three women, in Pantalowice, for helping Jews.[3] The Poles were denounced by 18-year-old Jewish woman Małka Schönfeld, whom they helped, after the Germans promised to spare her life in exchange for information about Poles, who helped Jews.[3] In March 1943, the Germans murdered 11 Polish inhabitants suspected of participating in the Polish resistance movement (see Nazi crimes against the Polish nation).[4]
