Krakow ghetto: German Order Police and Jewish residents of the ghetto are photographed in front of the ghetto gate in Limanowskiego and Rynek Podgórski streets.
Between March 1941 and March 1943 a small section of the Podgórze district of Krakow was walled off and served as a holding pen, or ghetto, for about 15,000 Jewish residents of Krakow. The walls and gates are variously reported as having been built by forced Jewish labor or Polish contractors, probably a mixture of both. The writing above the gate reads “Jewish residential area” in German but rendered in Yiddish script.

During the occupation, the Gestapo settles with the Ritz Hotel, Paris.
The swastika flew above the Eiffel Tower and other luxurious hotels ‘vanished behind shutters’, but at the Ritz, the suites were full. The hotel was ostensibly spared because Marie-Louise, the German-speaking widow of the founder, Cesar Ritz, was Swiss. Then, the Ritz was designated neutral territory, ‘a Switzerland in Paris’.
