The liquidation of the Jeremicze Ghetto and the murder of its last 97 Jews took place on November 4, 1941 – the same day that also saw the murder of about 500 Jews in nearby Turzec. Both massacres were perpetrated by men of the 8th Company of the 727th Infantry Regiment, who were under the command of the military chief of Stołpce, Lieutenant Ludwig Göbel, with the assistance of the local Belorussian police. On November 4, a German squad from this company traveled from Stołpce to Jeremicze. With the help of Belorussian policemen, they assembled the entire ghetto population in the central square and declared that they were to be sent away to forced labor. Then, after confiscating all of the Jews' money and valuables, the Germans led them northward, to pits that had been dug beforehand on the bank on the Niemen. At this site, the victims were killed.
