Koson' Holocaust







In early 1941, more than 100 Jews of Koson' were forced into the Hungarian slave labor battalions or sent to the eastern front, where some were murdered.

In April 1944, the day after Passover (Pesach), the Jewish families living in Koson' were rounded up and marched to the Beregszász (Berehove) ghetto—at the KONT and VÁLY Brick Factories and the facilities of adjacent so-called, WEISZ Farm—where they were interned for a month and a half.

In mid-May 1944, the Jews of Koson'—along with the others in the Beregszász ghetto—were forced into cattle cars and transported by train to the Auschwitz concentration camp in four transports on 16, 18, 19 and 24 May 1944.

The image to the right is that of the location of the Beregszász ghetto.

NOTE: Koson' was located in the Gendarmerie District VIII (Kassa). Ghettoization of the countryside Jews to the larger towns occurred 16-28 April 1944; deportations to the Auschwitz concentration camp occurred between 15 May and 7 June 1944. The 1944 Kassa list of Death Trains details the number of Jews deported and the stations of departure. (Kassa is present-day Košice, Slovakia.)
