Memory register · custodian, not owner

Varna, a Bulgarian Black Sea port, was home to a largely Sephardic Jewish community active in maritime commerce and regional trade. Judeo-Spanish in speech, its members were organized around their synagogues and institutions. Like all the Jews within Bulgaria's former borders, the community escaped deportation during the Second World War. After the independence of the State of Israel, the great majority of its members emigrated, principally to Israel.
