Database of Czech Jewish Vital Records is a project of the Institute of History of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The principal investigator is Daniel Baránek, Ph.D.. The database contains records from the registers of Jewish religious communities in the Bohemian lands, which are stored in the National Archives, Czech Republic.
Records can be searched using the Query Service in SPARQL. For now, all records can be viewed using this query. The user-friendly search interface is still under development.
The database represents a pilot project at the moment. We plan to build additional interfaces to the database, such as map interfaces similar to this one. For now, we are looking for sources of funding to launch the full-scale project.
If you would like to volunteer or support our efforts in any way, we would be grateful if you could complete a survey or contact us by email (baranek@hiu.cas.cz).
