The Lety camp was officially closed after the liquidation of the site was completed. The closure followed overcrowding, disease, deaths in custody, and deportations to Auschwitz. The camp was administered by Czech authorities under German occupation; recording its end separately from the May deportation makes the longer process of confinement visible.
