Ghettos and camps were used extensively by the Nazis during their time in power to segregate , oppress and persecute their opponents. This section explores what ghettos and camps were, how they developed, and what life was like for those imprisoned inside them.
From 1942 to 1944, the ghettos were liquidated and their Jewish inhabitants either shot or transported to extermination camps. After the Nazis occupied Poland in 1939, they began segregating Jews in ghettos, usually in the most run-down area of a city.
During the Holocaust, the creation of ghettos was a key step in the Nazi process of brutally separating, persecuting, and ultimately destroying Europe's Jews. Ghettos were often enclosed districts that isolated Jews from the non-Jewish population and from other Jewish communities.
Concentration camps are places where people are held outside of any judicial process for an indefinite period of time. Camp prisoners are often made to complete forced labour or await execution. The Nazis built hundreds of these camps all over Europe.
This volume provides a comprehensive account of how the Nazis established ghettos throughout the scattered towns and villages of Poland and the Soviet Union, an important step in the segregation, concentration, and persecution of Europe’s Jews during the Holocaust. It covers more than 1,150 sites.
Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933–1945 is a seven-part encyclopedia series that explores the history of the concentration camps, ghettos, forced-labor camps, and other sites of detention, persecution, or state-sponsored murder run by Nazi Germany and other Axis powers in Europe and Africa.
