About Gorlice Ghetto
Gorlice Ghetto is a historic site. Location: Gorlice, Gorlice County.
The Gorlice Ghetto was established in 1940 after German occupation of the Polish city began on September 7, 1939. As one of many ghettos created by Nazi Germany in the General Government, its establishment meant further persecution and violence against the nearly 3,400 Jewish citizens that were settled in the area.
