Ustaše camp reserved for Jewish women and children, in the premises of a former mill; the survivors are transferred to Jasenovac in June 1942.
The camp of Đakovo, in Slavonia, was opened by the Independent State of Croatia on the premises of a former mill in the town. It was reserved for Jewish women and children, most of them from Sarajevo and Zagreb, crowded into rooms with neither heating nor running water; typhus broke out there as early as winter.
The Jewish community of Osijek, permitted for a time to supply provisions to the detainees, kept records of those who died on site. The following spring, the Ustasha administration closed the camp and transferred the survivors to Jasenovac, where almost none would survive.
