Deportations of Jews from Slovakia to the Majdanek Concentration Camp: A Spatial Analysis of Transports of Jewish Men (March – April 1942) Historický časopis, 2025, 73, 5, pp. 1033-1054, Bratislava Abstract: From 25 March 1942 to 20 October 1942, the regime of Hlinka’s Slovak People’s Party deported 57,628 Jews from Slovakia to Nazi concentration and extermination camps in occupied Poland. Slovak historiography refers to this wave of deportations as the First wave of deportations of Jews from Slovakia. The vast majority of those deported during the first wave were murdered. The transports of the first wave headed in two main directions: to the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz and to the Lublin District. The study focuses on the so-called male transports of the First wave of deportations, which were carried out from Slovakia between 27 March and 5 April 1942. All the transports analysed in this study were assembled in the concentration camps of Žilina, Sereď and Nováky and were headed for the Lublin District. An important characteristic of these transports is the fact that all the Jewish men deported in them became prisoners of the same Nazi concentration camp upon their arrival in Lublin - the Lublin Concentration Camp, commonly known as Majdanek. The aim of this study is to provide a better understanding of the number of Slovak Jews deported to Majdanek in March and April 1942 and their geographical origin through data and spatial analysis of information obtained from transport lists, the Census of Jews and other sources. For our analysis, we utilised data from the aforementioned sources, which were recorded in the database. Working with the data involved both checking and merging data. The result was a dataset in CSV format that was subjected to data analysis using the Python programming language, as well as spatial data analysis using QGIS 3.44 and ArcGIS Pro 3.5 software. The results of data processing and spatial analysis were then interpreted in relation to previously published scientific outputs and other sources. Keywords: Holocaust. Jews. Slovakia. Majdanek. Deportations. GIS. Spatial analysis. DOI: https://doi.org/10.31577/histcaso.2025.73.5.7
