The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933-1945

It is suspected that the Wehrmacht erected an improvised work camp at Sedjenane in January 1943. The Jews who were put to work in Sedjenane, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) north of Beja, brought supplies and ammunition direct to the [End Page 586] front line and retrieved the bodies of fallen German soldiers. Thus, they were employed under the fire of the Allies. In February 1943, a group of forced laborers from Saf-Saf arrived. Sedjenane was liberated by the Allies on March 30, 1943.
