Jadovno concentration camp was a concentration and extermination camp located in Croatia during World War II. It was established by the Ustaše regime in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) and operated from May to August 1941. The camp was used to imprison and kill Serbs, Jews, and Romani people, among others.
The conditions at Jadovno were brutal, with prisoners forced to perform hard labor and subjected to severe beatings, starvation, and disease. Thousands of individuals were killed at the camp through various means, including shootings, beatings, and gas vans.
Estimates of the number of individuals killed at Jadovno range from several thousand to over 40,000. After the camp was closed in August 1941, its remaining prisoners were transferred to other camps or executed.
Jadovno is considered one of the earliest concentration camps to be established during World War II and one of the most brutal. It has been the subject of numerous memorials and commemorations, and efforts continue to uncover the full extent of the atrocities committed there.
