==History== The town of Jasice was formed by Nazi Germany during World War II, due to several routing errors of trains traveling across occupied Poland. The railway station in Bidziny was renamed Jasice in order to resolve the issue. The significance of the new name lay in the fact that the station was used as point of departure for the Holocaust trains. For example, the Opatów Ghetto was liquidated entirely through the Jasice deportation to Treblinka extermination camp in the north.
