Summary/Abstract: The first measures being taken against the Jews were those from November 1940, when terror broke out across the entire district, numerous Jews were illtreated by Legionaries, and numerous goods were confiscated. For a short period, from the autumn of 1941 until the spring of 1942, the Jews wore the yellow star. During WWII, many Jews from Tîrgu Neamț worked in labour detachments and some were deported in Transnistria. The majority of synagogues were seized by the army or by the Jews from Cernăuți and Dorohoi who were working in the labour detachments. In April 1944, the entire community was evacuated and moved to Buhuși, where it continued the work in the labour detachments and returned only in October 1944.
