In 1941, about seventy kilometers from Prague in the Czech town of Terezín, the Nazi regime established a ghetto known as Theresienstadt. Until May 1945, more than 140,000 Austrian, Danish, Dutch, German, Slovak, Hungarian, and Czech Jews were imprisoned there. After the war, in 1947, the Czechoslovak government initiated the creation of the National Suffering Memorial on the premises of the former ghetto. Later on, it was renamed the Terezín Memorial, which is the only institution in the Czech Republic that commemorates the victims of Nazi persecution in the Czech lands during the Second World War up to the present
