Bolesław Drobner (28 June 1883 – 31 March 1968) was a Polish politician. A member of the Polish Socialist Party, he supported cooperation with the communists. Arrested by the NKVD after the Soviet invasion of Poland, in 1943 he was released. Drobner joined a pro-Soviet Polish communist organization; the Union of Polish Patriots and later the Polish Committee of National Liberation (PKWN). As leader of the "Lublin Poles", he led a delegation to Żagań on 13 May 1945 where he pledged allegiance of his town to the Soviet Union.^[1]

In 1945, Drobner became the first Polish mayor (president) of Wrocław (former Breslau) and was deputy to State National Council and then to Polish Sejm (national legislature). He was a senior marshal of the latter institution in 1957, 1961 and 1965.
