Jews were living in D bica as early as 1673. They settled in D bica after being banished from the nearby town of Pilzno. At the beginning of the twentieth century there were about 2200 Jews or about 55% of the population. This vibrant small Jewish community was best known for two independent Jewish communities with two separate rabbinates and communal institutions (for Old D bica and New D bica). By the late 1930's there were approximately 3300 Jews still living in D bica. The Jews were lawyers, doctors, teachers, bakers, butchers, and tailors. When the Nazi forces occupied D bica in 1939 through 1944, the Jews were imprisoned in the local ghetto to perform forced labor in Pustk???w and were finally sent to the Bel ec death camp.
