Memory register · custodian, not owner

The Jewish community of Oslo (formerly Christiania) took shape after the lifting, in the nineteenth century, of restrictions that had long prohibited Jews from settling in Norway. Always small, it brought together mainly Ashkenazi immigrants from central and eastern Europe, present in commerce and crafts, and established a synagogue and communal institutions. During the German occupation, a significant portion of Norwegian Jews was arrested and deported to Auschwitz, while another part managed to flee to neutral Sweden. After the war, the community reconstituted itself, remaining modest in size.
