Memory register · custodian, not owner

Brno (Brünn), the metropolis of Moravia, welcomed after the lifting of residence restrictions in the nineteenth century a largely German-speaking Ashkenazic community, integrated into the industrial and commercial bourgeoisie of this great textile city. The community established modern institutions, synagogues, and schools, and participated in the economic and cultural life of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and then of Czechoslovakia. Under German occupation, from 1939 onward, its members were persecuted and then deported, many passing through the Theresienstadt ghetto before being murdered in the extermination camps. After 1945, only a reduced community was reconstituted.
