The ghetto operated in 1941–43.
On 22 June 1941, with the outbreak of the Soviet–German war, the German army occupied Švenčionis, which was one of the main centers of the Lithuanian Jewish community. Initially, the city was mainly occupied by Jews who participated in communist activities. According to local residents, in the first weeks of the war, Jews from the Švenčionis region were persecuted and killed, and in their residential centers – Švenčionis, Švenčionėliai, Kaltanėnai, Pabradė, Linkmenys – actions were carried out not only against those who participated in communist activities, but also against wealthier, educated people of Jewish origin.
