Theresienstadt (in Czech Terezin) was a small fortified town in Bohemia (now in the Czech Republic). There were two camps at Terezin (Theresienstadt) 1. A Gestapo prison for uncooperative Czechs. 2. A ghetto/concentration camp and transit camp for Jews, who were later transported to Auschwitz. It was, to some extent, used as a camp for prominent German and Austrian Jews.

Jenny Marba died in 1942, in Theresienstadt Concentration Camp, Czechoslovakia [now Terezn, Czech Republic].
There were two separate camps at Theresienstadt. One was a Gestapo prison for actual and suspected members of the Czech resistance, the other was a concentration camp (and transit camp) for Jews. It was intended as a model concentration camp that could be shown off to the Red Cross, and it had many of the features of a ghetto, such a nominal self-government; some cultural activities were also allowed. However, about 33,000 inmates were killed and about 85,000 were sent to Auschwitz, where they were gassed.
Terezin (Theresienstadt) is about 60 km NW of Prague in the Czech Republic.
