Around 20,000 Jews were rehoused in a designated part of the city. In October the SS carried out a selection: More than 9,000 Jews were brought to the IX. Fort and killed there. By the end of the year, all Jews remaining in the country had been allocated to labour camps or ghettos.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][vc_column_text]In 1943 the Kaunas and Siauliai ghettos were transformed into concentration camps. The Nazis murdered 1,200 infants, children and elderly people in Kauen concentration camp (German name for Kaunas), within just a few months.\u00a0 By the end of the year the concentration camp still had around 8,000 Jewish prisoners.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Before the Red Army reached the concentration camp, in Spring 1944 SS members murdered several thousand boys and girls. In July, both of the remaining concentration camps were dissolved. The SS deported Jewish prisoners to Auschwitz-Birkenau or to Stutthof concentration camp, where they were selected. Those who were deemed fit for work were taken further into the German Reich for forced labour such as to Landsberg\/Kaufering concentration subcamp complex. Those who were deemed unfit for work, were killed.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][uncode_block id=&#8221;84326&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_custom_heading]Lithuanian Jews[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Of the some 220,000 Jews who lived in Lithuania before the invasion of the German [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[77,97,106,109],"tags":[110],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.4 -
