Bardejov Jewish Preservation Committee

Bardejov Jewish Preservation Committee is a California-based organization dedicated to preserving the history and cultural heritage of the Jewish community in Bardejov. Founded in Pasadena, the committee consists of a dedicated team of three employees. Their mission centers around restoration, education, and commemoration. They actively work to repair and restore historically significant spaces connected to the Jewish community, conducting research and genealogical investigations to deepen understanding of this rich history. Through educational programs, lectures, publications, and heritage tours, they aim to engage diverse audiences, fostering awareness, tolerance, and a connection to Bardejov's Jewish heritage. A significant aspect of their work involves commemorating the Jewish citizens of Bardejov and surrounding areas who perished during the Holocaust. They organize annual memorial events, publish works like the Memorial Book of Jewish Bardejov, and conduct heritage tours of the Bardejov Holocaust Memorial and other relevant sites.
