How did the Germans make the Jews live in ghettos?

In towns in Nazi-occupied Poland and some other countries, an area was designated as the ghetto. All Jews were ordered into that area by a certain date, and all new-Jews were ordered to leave. The ghetto was enclosed by high walls and the perimeter was patrolled. Some Jews in big cities knew that the ghetto was a death-trap and fled if they could. On the whole, though, the Jews did as they were told.

What were the ghettos into which the Jews of Sighet were placed?

In April 1944, Hungarian authorities ordered Hungarian Jews living outside Budapest (roughly 500,000) to concentrate in certain cities, usually regional government seats. Hungarian gendarmes were sent into the rural regions to round up the Jews and dispatch them to the cities. The urban areas in which the Jews were forced to concentrate were enclosed and referred to as ghettos. Sometimes the ghettos encompassed the area of a former Jewish neighborhood. In other cases the ghetto was merely a single building, such as a factory.
