That's hard to answer. There was no real date that it began, but many point to the night of November 9, 1938 as the beginning. This night was called the Kristallnacht, or night of broken glass. On this night, thousands of Jewish businesses and Synagogues were destroyed by the Nazis, and more than 200,000 Jews were arrested and sent to concentration camps.

There is no agreed start date of the kind that would enable one to say that such-and-such a date was Day 1 of the Holocaust. The first mobile killing units (Einsatzgruppen) went into action on 25 June 1941 in Kaunas, Lithuania, but the numbers killed day-by-day are not known.
