Already during the time of King Casimir, Jews in Kraków played an important role in the regional economy. From the end of the 13th century, they were granted freedom of worship, construction of synagogues, freedom of trade, movement, travel and immigration. This contributed to the gradual increase of the Jewish community. Jews settled coming from nearer or more distant regions and countries to the east or west of Poland. Jews lived undisturbed with their Christian neighbors under the patronage of King Casimir. He understood that only the peaceful coexistence of different religions and peoples in the Kingdom can bring prosperity in all senses. What happened since then? Answers can be found in this lecture by Anđelko Srđak.

These two human and female stories summarize a multitude of theological and social burning topics. They talk about violence, patriarchy and power, creativity and survival in difficult living conditions, about the price of faith and following, about anti-Semitism, but also about why these two women are a permanent link between Judaism and Christianity.
The event will take place in the library of Evangelical Theological Seminary.

Lecture/exhibition about Jewish cemeteries in Slavonia and Baranja.
Cemeteries are treasuries of preserving cultural treasures, identity and evidence of the presence of a community in a certain area, so their documentation and subsequent study is extremely important for both minority and majority ethnic groups with the aim of getting to know local, regional, and national, history.
Cemeteries are guardians of a language and a culture, they preserve our names and symbols of religious and secular existence, as well as the names of the gods we pray to. They are symbols of human existence that, even with a certain time lag, provide a lot of information about the community that sets them up. Minority communities erode over time, they are left without generations that could take care of the burial places of their ancestors, and for this reason it is extremely important to document and analyze the places that preserve the culture of the peoples who have been present in these areas for centuries.
