Tłuszcz [twuʂt͡ʂ] ( translation: Fat, German: Tluschtsch) is a town in Wołomin County, Masovian Voivodeship, Poland, with 8,039 inhabitants (2021). [1]
Tłuszcz was founded in the 15th century. It was a royal village of Poland, administratively located in the Nur Land in the Masovian Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province.
During the Polish–Soviet War, in the night of 12–13 August 1920, Tłuszcz was the scene of a skirmish between the Poles and the invading Russians, [2] part of the Battle of Warsaw (1920).
For several years since 1939, the town of Tłuszcz was controlled in World War II by Nazis who removed pockets of Jews from the city, [3] shot and killed many of the same, and segregated various Jewish populations away from Tłuszcz borders. [4]
The Tłuszcz Railway Station was established 1862. Modern stations on the line connect to multiple European destinations.[ citation needed]
