Ostrava , Its Jewish Community, and Scroll 129

KS&DS has a sefer torah on permanent loan from the Czech Scrolls Trust, from the town of Ostrava in the Czech Republic.

A small group are researching the background of Ostrava, its Jewish community, Scroll 129, and how we came to have it. We, in KS&DS, are the heirs of the Ostrava Community who “bequeathed “us their sefer. We hope not only to unearth the historical facts, but to revive and maintain the memory of Ostrava as the vibrant dynamic community that it was. We are also in contact with the small present-day Jewish community in Ostrava and we plan to build up that relationship.

This is an ongoing task and we would welcome any information, material, or further contacts from people who know about or are interested in the Jews of Ostrava.

We will continue to bring you up to date about our research into Ostrava on the website and in future editions of Hadashot.
