Then the introduction of the history of the jewish community from the end of the 16th century to the period of the World War II follows.

This work is about Jewish settlement of north-west Bohemia. At first the compendious history of jews in Bohemia and Moravia is introduced. I pay slightly more attention to the topic of anti-semitism than the other topics. After that I focus on two important Jewish centres: Teplice as a town where the activity of the Jewish congregation was restored after the World War II and Cheb where the activity of Jewish congregation was not restored. Next I continue with the representation of chosen towns where Jews were the important part of their population. The last part of this work is followed the history of Jewish community in Kadaň.
