Administrative/biographical history:: It was not until 1847 that the first Jewish family was allowed to settled in Jablonec nad Nisou. A Jewish prayer association was established there in 1872, becoming a religious community in 1878 (officially in 1893). The community was disbanded after the annexation of the Sudetenland by Nazi Germany in 1938 but resumed its activities after the Second World War.
