Baranavichy Ghetto

Baranavichy Ghetto was a ghetto created in August 1941 in the city of Baranavichy, Belarus with more than 12,000 Jews kept in terrible conditions in six buildings at the outskirts. From March 4 to December 14, 1942, the entire Jewish population of the ghetto was sent to various extermination camps and killed in gas chambers. Only about 250 survived the war.[1]

The Ghetto was administered by a local Judenrat.[2]
