In November 1941, the first camp exclusively for Roma and Sinti was established in the Lodz ghetto on occupied Polish lands. Almost five thousand Roma and Sinti from Austria were imprisoned in the ghetto. As a result of the tragic sanitary and provisioning conditions prevailing in the camp and the epidemic of typhus, about 700 people died. The remaining inmates from mid-December 1941 to mid-January 1942 were deported and murdered in the first Nazi death camp Kulmhof in Chełmno nad Ner.
