Memory register · custodian, not owner

Trikala, in Thessaly, was an ancient center of Romaniote Judaism in Greece, with a long-attested Jewish presence. The community, composed of Romaniote families to whom Sephardim were added under Ottoman rule, lived from commerce and crafts and maintained its synagogue and traditions. During the German occupation of Greece in the Second World War, its members were targeted by deportations to the extermination camps; a portion nonetheless managed to hide with the help of the local population and the Resistance, so that a Jewish presence survived in Trikala after the war.
