Exploring Jewish Heritage and History in the Czech Lands
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a virtual journey with Emma through Brno, Mikulov, Třebíč, Pilsen, and Kroměříž, exploring synagogues, cemeteries, and stories of Jewish resilience across the Czech lands. Jewish communities have shaped the region for over a millennium, contributing to commerce, arts, and sciences despite periods of persecution, with a 19th-century cultural renaissance following Emperor Joseph II’s reforms. The Holocaust led to the murder of over 85% of Czech Jews, and Communist rule brought further hardships, yet survivors revived Jewish life and preserved a rich heritage.
