    The Litzmannstadt Ghetto or Lodz Ghetto was a Nazi ghetto established by the German authorities for Polish Jews following the invasion of Poland.
    It was the second-largest ghetto in all of German-occupied Europe after the Warsaw Ghetto.
    The ghetto was transformed into a major industrial centre, manufacturing war supplies for Nazi Germany and especially for the Wehrmacht.
    The number of people incarcerated in it was increased further by the Jews deported from the Third Reich territories.
    Because of its remarkable productivity, the ghetto managed to survive until August 1944.
    It was the last ghetto in occupied Poland to be liquidated. A total of 210000 Jews passed through it, but only 877 remained hidden when the Soviets arrived.
