Gebirtig is most famous for his song "Undzer shtetl brent," which was written in 1938 following the pogrom in Przytyk and which was later adopted by the Jewish youth of Krakow and others as a battle song against the Nazis.
In 1570 a wedding of one of the most famous Polish poets, Jan Kochanowski, took place at Przytyk’s church.

In the late Middle Ages, the area of Przytyk belonged to the Podlodowski family (Janina coat of arms), whose seat was located at a village of Zameczek (also called Ostrow).
In March 1941, Jews from Przytyk were transferred to Zwoleń (fact disputed by some scholars claiming that by then Jews of Przytyk were already removed).
