Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on presenting the survival strategies of Jews who were used as forced labourers in the HASAG Munitions Factory in Skarżysko-Kamienna during the Second World War. The analysis presents both active (escape attempts, trade with Poles) and passive forms of coping with the camp reality (prayer, poetic creation). The text also considers the motivations of the Jewish workers, and attempts to answer the question of the effective- ness of the survival strategies they developed.
