Transport Cd left Klatovy for the Theresienstadt Ghetto on 26 November 1942. It consisted of 650 Jews, residents from Klatovy, Prestice (Pschestitz), Nepomuk (Pomuk), Blatna, Horazdovice (Horschdowitz) and Nevezice. The deportees were brought to a local school building that served as an assembly site. Prior to the train’s departure, several staff members of the Prague Jewish community Transports Department arrived in Klatovy, to carry out administrative measures according to the orders they received from the Central Office for Jewish Immigration. They prepared a list of deportees, registered Jewish property, issued notices regarding the date of deportation, and assisted in packing and carrying luggage. The Jews were transferred from the school to the train station and put on a train. Upon arrival in Bohusovice, the deportees had to disembark and were forced to march the remaining 3 km to Theresienstadt.
