- Theresienstadt
Town in the Czech Republic, 50 kilometers north of Prague. Terezín (Ger., Theresienstadt) was established in 1780 as a fortress town with a military garrison. Presumably, a small number of Jews (mainly soldiers and merchants) lived there from the town’s beginnings. A Jewish military doctor is mentioned in a record dating from 1836, three Jewish families lived there in 1843, and a prayer room was functioning by 1861. Jewish settlement reached its height in 1890 (with 222 persons, representing 3% of the total population). The local prayer society was connected to the religious community of Litoměřice (Ger., Leitmeritz). The cemetery contains about 90 Jewish graves, including those of residents, prisoners of war, and civilian refugees from Galicia and Bucovina from the World War I period.
