Beschrijving
From the outset, the Wartheland was allocated for the removal of Poles and Jews and for resettlement of ethnic Germans. The Lodz Ghetto quickly emerged as the second largest ghetto under Nazi rule, a place from which some 200,000 Jews and 5,000 Romani were sent to the gas chambers at Chelmno and Auschwitz.
