Józef Cukier (14 November 1889, Zakopane – 22 April 1960, Zakopane) was one of the leaders of the Goralenvolk during World War II. Having been a president of the Highlander Union before the German invasion, he tried along with Wacław Krzeptowski to establish an independent state for his ethnic group by collaborating with the occupiers.[1] The attempt failed due to lack of support among the local population. After the war, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison for collaboration.[2]
