In September 1939, following the outbreak of World War II, the Soviets occupied Łyntupy. The Sovietization of the economy – in particular, the nationalization of trade and the deportation of several affluent artisans eastward – led to economic decline.
In June 1941, the Soviet-German War began, and the Wehrmacht occupied Łyntupy in the first days of July. Anti-Jewish orders followed, and forced labor was imposed on the local community. Individual killings of Jews took place. A small ghetto was established in the town. In April 1942, the Germans incorporated Łyntupy into the so-called General Commissariat of Lithuania (Generalkommissariat Litauen), and the town came to be controlled by the Lithuanian police. A short while later, some of the Jews of Łyntupy were moved to the nearby Święciany Ghetto; a little over 100 Jews remained in the town.
On December 18, 1942, the last 93 inmates of the Łyntupy Ghetto, which had been transformed into a labor camp, were shot at the southern edge of the town.
Łyntupy was liberated by the Red Army on July 6, 1944.
