● Nazi Crimes on Maps
On behalf of the Justiz und NS-Verbrechen / Nazi Crimes on Trial project, EX POST FACTO has geographically marked the crime locations of the post-war German trials with the help of Google Maps. Alphabetically listed below, are over 1700 towns, villages and other places where Nazi crimes were committed which were prosecuted and tried before East and West German courts after the war. *
In pin-pointing the various loci delicti we tried to be as accurate as possible. In many instances we succeeded in establishing the exact location of places which seemed wholly untraceable at first. A great help were the many excellent websites with information on (re-named) place names, different spellings of geographical locations, etc. Nonetheless, there still remain a few places which could either not be found or whose location is still uncertain. We've marked them accordingly.
Please note that the locations you find on the maps are geographical approximations, based on the information given in the trial judgments.
The names of the locations given here are spelled like the German ones found on the website of the JuNSV-project. No effort was made to anglicize or adapt them in accordance with the spelling in the European countries to which they belong.
With the exception of the first two lists ("Berlin" and "A-B"), we have for the moment abstained from including descriptions of the crimes committed in the respective locations. You can read all about them at the Justiz und NS-Verbrechen / Nazi Crimes on Trial website to which links are included. To facilitate investigations, we have included lists of crime locations by country at the bottom of this page
* The Justiz und NS-Verbrechen / Nazi Crimes on Trial digital data base contains many more places associated with these crime locations. Since they were not the focus of the criminal trial proceedings under consideration however, they are not included here (even though in many of these similar crimes may have taken place). Should you be in search of such locations, you can contact us
To search for
crime locations you can use the alphabetical lists given
below or go directly to Google Maps,
1) zoom in on a
particular European country or region you're interested in,
2)
select user-created content in the
search options, type junsv in
the search window and press the search button (or enter).
Depending on your zoom level you will now be presented with the crime locations within the area. If you zoom in or out and repeat the search other crime locations will be presented to you.
Alternatively, you could select a city - e.g. Warsaw - and add junsv. This will present you with the crime sites in and around the location of your choice.
Tip! The maps will open in an English language version of Google Maps. If you're more comfortable with a German environment, simply replace the language denominator in the URL with "de" instead of "eng" (like this: http://maps.google.nl/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=de ...etc.) and press Enter. This will do the trick.
