Auschwitz
Auschwitz, Polish Oświęcim — a town in Poland. In 1939 it became part of the territory annexed to the Third Reich and the Nazis built a complex of concentration and extermination camps there. Hundreds of Roma and Sinti from the Czech lands, most of them men, were deported by the Germans in transports as so-called “asocials” to the Auschwitz I concentration camp in 1940 – 1942. Most of the Roma and Sinti from the Czech lands, however, were transported to Auschwitz with their entire families in 1943 and 1944, when the camp for Roma and Sinti was built in part of the Auschwitz II-Birkenau extermination camp (see Auschwitz II-Birkenau, B IIe).
