Slutsk (in Belarusian Sloutsk) is an ancient city in the Minsk region (Belarus), whose Jewish presence is attested from the 16th century onward. In the 19th century and the early 20th century, the Jewish community, which represented a significant share of the population, animated local economic and cultural life, and the city was home to a renowned yeshiva. In October–November 1941, the SS and their auxiliaries massacred the approximately 8,000 to 10,000 Jews of the Slutsk ghetto.
