Teharje camp was a World War II prison camp near Teharje, Slovenia, organised by Nazi Germany and used after the war by the Yugoslav Partisans. In 1943, German forces built a military camp for approximately 500 people in Teharje, including six residential barracks and ten other buildings. Towards the end of the war the Germans used the camp to hold prisoners that had participated in the defense of Celje, and the camp was abandoned for a short time after the war. The camp was reactivated by the Yugoslav communists at the end of May 1945 to accommodate former members of the Slovene Home Guard and others that had collaborated with the Germans, as well as civilians that had fled before the advancing Yugoslav People's Army to Allied camps in Austrian Carinthia. On 31 May 1945 the entire 2nd Assault Battalion headed by Vuk Rupnik was brought to Teharje, and in the first days of June 1945 approximately 3,000 members of the Slovene Home Guard joined them. It is estimated that the postwar authorities executed approximately 5,000 internees of Teharje without trial during the first month or two after the Second World War.〔(European Public Hearing on "Crimes Committed by Totalitarian Regimes" ) page 148 (Internees from the concentration camp in Št. Vid nad Ljubljano were taken by train and cattle wagons to Kočevje and from there by trucks to selected hidden locations in the forests of Kočevski Rog. Larger Karst shafts were chosen as the places of execution. A certain number of internees from the Teharje concentration camp were killed in its immediate vicinity, but the majority was killed in the neighbourhood of Stari Hrastnik, Trbovlje, and Laško. Many were killed there and thrown into mine pits, while some were thrown into deserted mine shafts. Of several thousands of internees in the concentration camps Teharje, Št. Vid nad Ljubljano and Škofja Loka, only a small number of civilians and young Home Guards survived. These were released after the amnesty that was declared on 3 August 1945).〕 A memorial park designed by the architect Marko Mušič was built on the site of the camp in 2004.〔(Slovenian Ministry of Culture register of national heritage ) reference number ešd 26716〕 ==See also== *Kočevski Rog massacres 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Teharje camp」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
