The Theresienstadt concentration camp was used for incarceration for the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia and for the Jews of Central and Western Europe during the Nazi occupation during World War II. The Gestapo claimed responsibility for Terezin on June 10, 1940, and in November 1941 the walled town became a closed camp. The place was called a "ghetto" by the Nazi authorities, as part of their attempt to give the place a different representative image.
