Jasenovac was a notorious concentration camp during Ustashe-led Croatian government during World War II. Its inmates were tortured, maimed and killed in most brutal ways (with sledgehammers and special knives called 'Serb cutters'). Around 600.000 Serbs are estimated to have been martyred in the camp, along with smaller number of Jews and Roma.
