Memory register · custodian, not owner

Tallinn (Reval), in Estonia, was home to a small Ashkenazi Jewish community, formed mainly in the nineteenth century and well integrated into the bourgeois and cultural life of the city. Independent Estonia granted its Jewish minority a remarkable degree of cultural autonomy in the interwar period. During the German occupation in 1941, the community was almost entirely exterminated, and Estonia was presented at the Wannsee Conference as "free of Jews." The Jewish presence reconstituted itself only weakly after the war.
