Abstract
Jews were merchants in Koprivnica since mid 18th century, but the first Jewish families settled only around year 1800. however, Jewish settlers in the neighboring area had settled somewhat earlier. Until 1848, Jews were coming as settlers to Koprivnica slowly but continuously. Even though their number were small, 40 souls or just 8 families, they managed to form a core of the future Jewish community here, establishing their community, their graveyard, Chebra Kadische and complementary religious events.
