“The evacuation, at least as far as the Reich territory is concerned,<br />

replaced the emigration of the Jews. It was prepared on a<br />

large scale after the prohibition of Jewish emigration in the autumn<br />

of 1941 and largely implemented in the total Reich territory in 1942.<br />

In the balance of the Jewish presence it appears as ‘migration.’<br />

According to the figures of RSHA, the migrations were as follows<br />

up to 1 Jan. 1943:<br />

From the Altreich including Sudetenland: 100,516 Jews<br />

from Ostmark 47,555 Jews<br />

from the Protectorate 69,677 Jews<br />

Total 217,748 Jews<br />

These figures comprise also the Jews evacuated to the old-age<br />

ghetto at Theresienstadt.<br />

All moves combined, the following figures apply to the Reich territory<br />

including the eastern territories, as well as the German sphere<br />

of power and influence in Europe for the period between October<br />

1939 and 31 Dec. 1942:<br />

1. Evacuation of Jews from Baden and Palatinate [regions] to<br />

France: 6,504 Jews<br />

2. Evacuation of Jews from the Reich territory including the<br />

Protectorate and Bialystok district to the east: 170,642 Jews<br />

3. Evacuation of Jews from the Reich territory and the Protectorate<br />

to Theresienstadt: 87,193 Jews<br />

4. Transport of Jews from the Eastern provinces to the Russian<br />

East: 1,449,692 Jews<br />

Processed through the camps in the General Government<br />

area: 1,274,166 Jews<br />

Through the camps in the Warthegau: 145,302 Jews.<br />

5. Evacuations of Jews from other countries, viz.:<br />

France (occupied before 10. Nov. 1942) 41,911 Jews<br />

Netherlands 38,571 Jews<br />

Belgium 16,886 Jews<br />

Norway 532 Jews<br />

Slovakia 56,691 Jews<br />

Croatia 4,927 Jews<br />

Evacuation, total (incl. Theresienstadt and<br />

incl. special treatment) 1,873,549 Jews<br />

without Theresienstadt 1,786,356 Jews
