Remembering the Zagreb Synagogue: A void we (don’t) feel?
Ines Siuc
Sažetak
This paper provides a short overview of the history of the synagogue in Praška street in Zagreb, starting from its construction to its demolition, and looks at how members of the Jewish community and citizens of Zagreb remember the synagogue. In this paper, memory is demonstrated in art practices and in testimonies of Jews in Zagreb, which provide a heterogeneous view on the synagogue as a place of remembrance of a destroyed community, a place in which the (in)visibility of Zagreb’s Jewish community after the Second World War is clearly shown, and as a possibility for future growth of the community.
