Summary/Abstract: The article, written in 1994, deals with the deportations from the Terezín ghetto to the Lublin district. The article is based on a rich source base from the State Museum Majdanek. Since there were 13 transports from Terezín to the Lublin district (one of them sent directly from Prague, AAh), the author attempts to prove that those who were deported to Majdanek were mostly male prisoners. He identified 858 people by name, who were murdered here. Only nine of them were women.(in the period spanning June 8, 1942 through September 28, 1942.) Kryl estimates the overall number of the prisoners taken from Terezín to Majdanek to be 6,000.
