- A small Jewish settlement in Nová Bystřice is documented from the latter half of the 18th century. A Jewish prayer association was established in 1860 as part of the Jewish Religious Community of Staré Město pod Landštejnem. The community's seat was transferred from Staré Město pod Landštejnem to Nová Bystřice in 1893. The community was disbanded after the annexation of the Sudetenland by Nazi Germany in 1938 and did not resume its activities after the Second World War.
