Memory register · custodian, not owner

Patras, a port in the Peloponnese, was home to an ancient Jewish presence, attested since Antiquity, which persisted through a small Romaniote community in the Middle Ages. Under Ottoman rule, Sephardim came to join them, enriching the religious and commercial life of the community. Active in trade, it always remained modest in size. During the Second World War and the occupation of Greece, the community of Patras suffered the persecutions and deportations that decimated Greek Judaism; a few descendants remain in Greece.
