On March 28, 1943, 112 hostages from the area around Włodawa were detained in field IV of the Majdanek concentration camp. They were peasants, put in preventive custody for having murdered District Commissioner Götz and his family. Between March 23 and 26, in reprisal for this murder, German military police pacified a few villages near Włodawa, including Lubień, Wyryki-Adampol, Skorodnica and Kamień.

Initially, the hostages were being kept in prison in Włodawa. Then they were transported to the Majdanek concentration camp. The majority of inmates deposited their money in the camp. Thanks to that a dozen or so money inventories and one (much destroyed) collective deposit card have been preserved. Some of the arrested and detained at Majdanek were released from the camp just after a few days, at the beginning of April.
