Banjica
In Belgrade, July 1941, the Germans set up a camp in former military barracks called Banjica. Germans imprisoned Serbian communists, partisans and later Serbian jews. The commander of the camp was Gestapo officer, Willy Friedrich. Although it was a Nazi camp, Serbs also served, and the camp was subsequently divided into a german and a serbian section. About 24,000 people from Banjica were murdered in gas wagons, but also by shooting at the execution site Jajinci. The camp was closed in September, 1944.
Current status: Preserved with museum (2009).
Address: Pavla Jurišica Šturma 33, Belgrad.

Follow up in books: Pavlowitch, Steven: Hitler’s New Disorder: The Second World War in Yugoslavia (2008).
After the war, Banjica regained its original purpose as military barracks and the museum is a small part of the military camp. The museum has limited opening hours and all information is in Serbian.
