Abstract

The authors of this presentation described the fate of several Jewish pharmacists and their families who lived and worked in the territory of the Czech lands during 1918-1945. Their fates were a typical mosaic that corresponded to the fate of the Jewish community in the Czech lands during the Second World War - all lost their property and almost all of their lives or their loved ones.

Only a few have survived through emigration. Some of them also experienced liberation in the Terezin concentration camp.
