Summary
Map of the Holocaust in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupation_of_Poland_(1939%E2%80%9345)" class="extiw" title="en:Occupation of Poland (1939–45)">occupied Poland</a> during World War II. The outline shows the borders of the Second Polish Republic at the time of the Nazi German and Soviet invasion of Poland in 1939 with demarcation line between two invading armies marked in red. Internal boundaries show the administrative divisions of occupied territories imposed by Nazi Germany when the Final Solution was set in motion during and after Operation Barbarossa of 1941.
This map shows all Nazi German extermination camps (or death camps), as well as prominent concentration, labour and prison camps, major pre-WW2 Polish cities with the new Jewish ghettos set up by Nazi Germany, major deportation routes and major massacre sites.
Notes:
1. Extermination camps were dedicated death camps for gassing, but all camps and ghettos took a toll of many, many lives.
2. Concentration camps include labor camps, prison camps & transit camps.
3. Not all camps & ghettos are shown.
4. Borders are at the height of Axis domination (1942).
5. Regions have German designations (e.g. "Ostland"), with the country name denoted in uppercase letters, e.g. LITHUANIA, CZECHOSLOVAKIA, or in parenthesis below the German occupational designation, e.g. (POLAND).
