- The Jewish Religious Community of Olomouc was founded in the second half of the 19th century. It was disbanded during the Nazi Occupation but resumed its activities in 1945. In 1962, due to a decline in membership numbers, the community became a synagogue association under the authority of the Jewish Religious Community of Ostrava. The Olomouc community was re-established in 1991 with authority over the Jewish communities in the districts of Olomouc, Šumperk, Jeseník, Bruntál and Přerov. The Jewish Community of Olomouc is still in existence.
