- has abstract
- Royal town in southern Poland, since 1945 in the province of Silesia. Będzin (Yid., Bendin) traces Jewish settlement back to the thirteenth century. In 1583, King Stefan Batory granted a charter to Jews of Będzin, giving them the right to own prayer houses and a cemetery, to sell and buy municipal real estate, to carry out unlimited trade, to slaughter animals and sell meat, and to manufacture and distribute alcoholic beverages. The privilege was confirmed by subsequent rulers.
