Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the archivist angle of work, i.e. the acquisition of data and materials necessary to bring together different pieces of occupation-time life of Jakub Laskiera. Jakub Laskier was a Polish assimilated Jew, an educated banker and a Zionist (he spent some time in a kibbutz in Degania Alef, Palestine, and was a member of Aron Gordon’s group). He was in Auschwitz and Sachsenhausen concentration camps during the Holocaust and took part in a secret mission called the “Bernhard’s operation”, the historical value of which is worth recalling.
