Holocaust Era Locations Research

Date: [unknown] [unknown]
Location: [unknown]

This page is to record research on locations that our project hasn't done much work on yet.

The first list here is copy-pasted from the Massacres cateogy - many of the cats were created years ago, but have no profiles and need more research. Please feel free to record any info below each one; leave an "answer" on this G2G post if you are ready for the category to be created.
