For the most famous of these, look for the Warsaw Ghetto.
do you mean the areas in Germany used for housing the Polish workers? there were no ghettos for gentile Poles in Poland, only Jewish ghettos.
Ghettos, the same as for any neighborhood that is segregated for ethnic or cultural reasons.
in world war 2, after Germany invaded pland in 1939, more than two million polish Jews came under German control, and were eventuly forced in to what the Germans called "ghettos"or"Jewish residential quarters."The Germans created more than 400 ghettos in occupied territories. But the biggest ghettos was in Warsaw, the polish capital, where almost half a million Jews were confied, and killed.
Ghettos
The process started in November 1939 and continued for several months.
At that time they were encouraged to move into the cities, but in particular they had to move to a region called 'General Government'.
Segregated Jewish areas in Polish cities were called Ghettos. Hope this helps :)
that would be the ghettos.
It happened at different times in different parts of the country. The process started in October 1939 and continued till about March 1941.
They did in several concentration camps and ghettos; most noteably, Treblinka - the Polish death camp that was taken back by Jewish inmates and was burned to the ground in 1944. The term Polish Death Camp is incorrect. The Nazi Germans established the death camps on occupied Polish soil. The camps were not Polish as implied by the comment the error needs to be corrected.
apart from the usual jobs like waiter, musician, shop assistant, policeman, etc there were small industries and manual labour details.
In total, there were over 540 Jewish ghettos in the entire Nazi empire, which sent the majority of the Jews to their deaths. Over 2 million Polish Jews died in the death camps, which operated in conjunction with certain ghettos. Most ghettos were 'closed' (sealed off with high walls and barbed wire) as in the case of Lodz, Czestochowa, Warsaw, Krakow while others remained 'open' as in Sosnowiec, until the actual deportation of Jews occurred.
