Wanda Macińska’s Broken Biography

Abstract

The article tells the story of Wanda Macińska, nee Scheing, who was a Warsaw-based activist of the National Party, especially in 1942-1947, and the wife of Tadeusz Miciński, the organiser and leader of the underground Capital District of the National Party. An underground operative, Pawiak and Ravensbruck prisoner, and then a highly valuable agent of the Ministry of Public Security, Macińska played a key role in the post-war surveillance of nationalist activists and in the so-called „Berg Scandal“. On the one hand, the text shows the dramatic vicissitudes of individuals, but on the other hand, the sophisticated methods of the state security apparatus targeting former National Party activists.

Keywords:
