Geto u Łódźu

**Lođski geto** () je bio drugi po veličini geto (nakon Varšavskog geta) koji je osnovan za Jevreje i Rome u okupiranoj Poljskoj za vreme Drugog svetskog rata. Nalazio se u gradu Lođu i prvobitno je bio zamišljen kao privremeno mesto okupljanja za Jevreje. Međutim, geto je transformisan u veliki industrijski centar u kojem se proizvodio veoma potreban materijal za nacističku Nemačku, posebno za nemačku vojsku. Zbog svoje izuzetne produktivnosti, geto je uspeo da preživi do avgusta 1944, kada su preostali stanovnici transportovani u logore smrti Auschwitz i Chelmno. To je bio poslednji geto koji je likvidiran u okupiranoj Poljskoj.

Od ukupno oko 204.000 Jevreja koji su prošli kroz Lođski geto, samo ih je oko 10.000 preživelo rat.
