In mid-May 1944, the Jews of Győr were incarcerated in the ghetto. By the beginning of June, more Jews were brought to the ghetto from surrounding settlements. On 7 June 1944, the authorities began to brutalize the ghetto residents in order to find out where they had hidden their valuables. From 7-10 June 1944, the ghetto residents were taken to barracks in the outskirts of the city, near the banks of the Danube. The Jews were ordered to bring only the clothes they were wearing. At the barracks, the prisoners were given soup three times a day. A Jewish order service was responsible for relaying the commands of the Hungarian authorities to the members of their community, for carrying out the commands and for representing the community vis-à-vis the authorities.
