Borovka Hospital

On Saturday, August 9, 1941 a detachment of Einsatzkommando 12 of Einsatzgruppe D arrived in Borovka and the village elder was ordered to collect all the local Jews on the market square. Thus, on Sunday August 10 about 250 Jews of all ages and both sexes were collected near the club house in the village center and taken to the area of the hospital on the western outskirts of Borovka. Several of the victims were forced to dig a pit, where all of the Jews were then shot. The shooting was carried out by members of Einsatzkommando 12 and local auxiliary policemen.
