Persecutions by the Nazis resulted in mass migration of Elbing Jews. In 1933, the town had 367 Jewish inhabitants, and in 1936 – only 207. The remaining Jews were moved to the area of Wyspa Spichrzow, an unofficial ghetto. They were deported to ghettos in Theresienstadt, Lodz, Riga, Piaski and Kaunas.
