Summary/Abstract: The eighth annual Židé v Čechách [Jews in Bohemia] seminar took place in Jindřichův Hradec on 12 and 13 October 2021. It was organized by the Jewish Museum in Prague in cooperation with the Museum of Jindřichův Hradec. It was originally planned for October 2020, but had to be postponed as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Once again, as usual, the focus of the seminar was on several thematic areas – namely, the history of Jews in Bohemia in the second half of the 19th century and in the 20th century, the history of Jewish communities in the border areas of Bohemia, regional history, Jewish cemeteries, and descriptions of archival materials and archival files that are useful for studying the history of Jews in Bohemia.
