Krakow was occupied by Germany in the first week of September, 1939. By March 1941, more than 55 000 Jews had been expelled from the city, and the remaining 15 000 to 20 000 Jewish residents were concentrated in the closed ghetto. By the end of 1943, the vast majority of them were murdered: either deported to Bel?ec, dead from starvation or illness, or shot in the ghetto. After liberation, less than 5 000 Jews resurfaced in Krakow.
