Talk:Rumšiškės

[Untitled]
Please removed POV phrasing. The Soviets couldn't create camps during the WWII before the coming of Nazis, because the Soviet Union entered the WWII on June 22, 1941. --Ghirlandajo 08:11, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Ghirlandajo you are wrong, because USSR occupied Lithuania in 1940. And USSR entered wwII in 1939 when it attacked Poland together with germany.

No concentration camp in or around Rumsiskes
There was no concentration camp in or around Rumsiskes. If someone wants to write about Pravieniskes prison, go ahead, create Pravieniskes article. Rumsiskes and Pravieniskes are different towns and not so close. Sigitas 18:27, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

According to the encyclopedic work, "Yahadut Lita", there was a "coercion camp" for prisoners called Pruvanishok (Pravieniskes) near Rumsiskes where many Jews were imprisoned. Also, according to the List of Common Graves, published in the second part of the book "Mass Murder in Lithuania", Jews from Rumsiskes were buried in Pravieniskes, about 5 kilometers north of Rumsiskes and 50 meters from the administration buildings of the coercion camp, near the lumber-mill and the forest. On September 4, 1941 253 men, women and children were murdered and buried at this location; and, in the Spring of 1944 270 souls were murdered and buried at this location.
