The main ghettos in Poland were those in Warsaw and Lodz (which was renamed Litzmannstadt). Lublin and Krakow also had ghettos, as did many other towns in Nazi occupied Poland. In all, there were about 580 ghettos in Poland.
The first German built ghetto was in occupied Poland at Piotrków Trybunalski in October 1939. The Germans went on to establish at least 1,000 ghettos for Jews. The Warsaw and Lodz ghettos were established in 1940.
Jews were not just one group of people in one place. Ghettos were established throughout the war, Jews were forced into ghettos throughout the war, where they were depended on when they were deported.
Hungary was occupied by Germany in May, 1944.
There were three types of ghettos: closed ghettos, open ghettos, and destruction ghettos. The Germans established at least 1,000 ghettos in German-occupied and annexed Poland and the Soviet Union alone. German occupation authorities established the first ghetto in Poland in PiotrkówTrybunalski in October 1939.
It depends on what you mean by closed. If you mean sealed off fron the surrounding area, the date varied from ghetto to ghetto, but if you mean shut down, emptied ('liquidated') last of the ghetto in Poland to be dissolved was the Lodz Ghetto in August 1944: the remaining inhabitants were transported to Auschwitz.

Poland was directly involved in the second world war. In 1939, Poland was overrun and occupied by Nazi Germany. In late 1944, the Red Army drove Germany out of Poland and established a communist government in Poland.
The Invasion of Poland, 1939 and "the 1939 Defensive War in Germany, was carried out by Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union and a small German-allied Slovak contingent. Germany captured the Soviet-occupied areas of Poland when it invaded the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941, and lost the territory in 1944 to an advancing Red Army.
