Minsk, Poland (now Belarus)

The Germans entered Minsk on 28 June 1941. A ghetto was created one month later. Between 1941 and 1943, the Minsk ghetto was the largest in occupied Europe with 100,000 occupants. When the ghetto was destroyed, the SS deported Jews to the Sobibor extermination camp in occupied Poland.
