Kremnicka and Nemecká massacres
The Kremnicka and Nemecká massacres were a series of massacres committed between 5 November 1944 and 19 February 1945 in Kremnicka and Nemecká, Slovakia by the Hlinka Guard Emergency Divisions and Einsatzkommando 14 following the suppression of the Slovak National Uprising. During the uprising, many Jews fled to Banská Bystrica, a partisan stronghold; when the town fell, Jews, actual or suspected Slovak partisans, and Romani people captured during roundups were temporarily held in the town's jail. The victims were then trucked to the murder sites at Kremnicka and Nemecká, where they were shot. The majority of the 747 people shot at Kremnicka were Jewish. Exact figures are not known for the Nemecká massacres, because the bodies were burned, but historians estimate a death toll of around 900, of whom most of the known victims were Jewish or Romani.
