Jewish History, POI & Kosher Establishments in Zagreb

The Jewish community of Croatia dates back to at least the 3rd century, although little is known of the community until the 15th century. By the outbreak of World War II, the community numbered approximately 20,000 members, most of whom were killed during the Holocaust that took place on the territory of the nazi puppet state called Independent State of Croatia. Today, Croatia is home to eight synagogues and associated organizations, located in Zagreb, Rijeka, Osijek, Split, Dubrovnik, Čakovec, Daruvar, Slavonski Brod. Of these, the Zagreb community is the largest and most active, organizing events such as the annual Zagreb Jewish Film Festival to promote Jewish culture and identity.
