Between October 1942 and September 1943, primarily “totok” women and children from in and around Cheribon and Batavia were interned in the aging “European” Kramat district. They were housed in approximately 170 houses and outbuildings, spread over two complexes, one on either side of Raden Salehlaan. Each complex was encircled with barbed wire and gedek.

In September 1943, most of the women and children who were interned in the Kramat district were taken to the Tjideng district, elsewhere in Batavia. The southern part of the district was thereafter used as an internment area for working men and their families and for “European” women and children from Batavia, Buitenzorg, Tangerang and Bandoeng. They included nuns. They were housed in older “European” houses, communally encircled with barbed wire and gedek. After all 400 working men were taken in May 1944 to the 4th and 9th Battalions' Encampment in Tjimahi, 450 boys were transferred at the beginning of September to Camp Grogol. As a result, Kramat became once again a women’s and children’s camp.

After the working men and the boys had been sent from Kramat to, respectively, Tjimahi and Grogol, the homes and outbuildings in the southern part of Kramat were exclusively occupied by women and children. In November and December, groups of women from the camps Kota Paris (Buitenzorg), Tjihapit (Bandoeng) en ADEK (Batavia) came to Kramat, while women and children from Kramat were sent to other camps in Batavia.

At the time of the Japanese capitulation, approximately 2,000 women and children were in the southern part of the Kramat district. In the bersiap period, the district became a relief camp for refugees and evacuees. In February 1946, there were 2,400 people in the district. The houses and garages, which were used a living space, were in poor condition. Leaking roofs could not be repaired, and the sewage facilities often failed.
