Title
former Jewish Museum, Prešov
Description
The Jewish Museum in Prešov was established in 1928 and operated until 1938. From 1953 to 1993, its collection was housed at the State Jewish Museum in Prague. Today, the collection belongs to the Jewish Community of Prešov, and a small permanent exhibition is on display in the women’s section of the Prešov synagogue. For many years, the collection has been researched by a team consisting of Jana Švantnerová, Zsuzsanna Toronyi, and Maroš Borský, who collaborate with numerous experts in Slovakia and abroad. Many objects have been restored, and four exhibitions accompanied by extensive printed catalogues have been produced.
