Emilia Leibel's work certificate

Popularization note

The certificate about Emilia Leibel's work at the Polish secondary school in Koźmodiemiansk. She worked there from 1 September 1945 to 4 March 1946 as a teacher in grades 1-4. It is a handwritten, one-sided document on a second-hand sheet of paper (originally a sheet from the school diary?).Probably at that time, when she was working at the school, Emilia Leibel received a letter from her schoolmate, Karol Wetstein, who survived the stay in the camps and returned to her house at Starowiślna Street in Kraków. It was she who informed Emilia about the death of her parents and signalled that after her return from Russia Emilia and her daughter would always find shelter with her. However, when mother and daughter reached Kraków, it turned out that Karola Wetstein had left for Switzerland to treat her son there (during the occupation he stayed alone in a walled room, fed through a small hole), and strangers lived in her flat. During her first days in Kraków, Emilia Leibel received help from repatriates with whom she had made friends in Russia and with whom she returned to Poland.
