H7 HODONÍN U KUNSTÁTU (CZ)

Between 1942 and 1945, the “Gypsy” camp at Hodonín near Kunštát in Moravia was used as a detention camp for the Moravian Roma. The conditions, including food and accommodation, were dreadful. As a result, 207 of the 1,375 people held at Hodonín died of various illnesses, particularly typhoid.
