Židovska zajednica u Moslavini i Kutini

Abstract

Autorica iznosi neke najosnovije povijesne i statističke podatke o židovskoj zajednici u Moslavini i Kutini koja je krajem XIX. i početkom XX. stoljeća bila važan čimbenik trgovačkog svijeta. Prvi Židovi u Kutini zabilježeni su 1822. godine, mada su kao trgovci i pokućarci dolazili i ranije te je prema nekima autorima židovska općina u Kutini osnovana 1806. godine, no osim prijepisa matične knjige židovske bogoštovne općine u Kutini drugih odgovarajućih podataka nema. Iako su bili cijelo XIX. stoljeće prisutni u Kutini, općina je utemeljena tek 1877. godine. Broj Židova na prijelazu stoljeća povećavao se, da bi nakon Prvoga i Drugog svjetskog rata opao, tako da danas u Kutini u novom popisu stanovnika nije zabilježen ni jedan Židov, a o njihovoj prisutnosti u Kutini danas svjedoče samo nadgrobni spomenici na židovskom groblju.

The author notes several of the most important historical and statistical data on Jewish communities in Moslavina and Kutina, which were, at the end of the 19th and 20th centuries, important factors within the retail world. The first Jews in Kutina are documented from 1822. although as retailers and door-to-door salesmen who came to the region even earlier. According to some authors, the Jewish community in Kutina was formed in 1806. Except for the official documentation from Jewish holy meeting places, the community of Kutina has no other official record of that community. Even though they were present in Kutina for the entire 19th century, their community was not officially founded until 1877. The number of Jews at the turn of the century increased, however, after the first and second world wars their population fell again so today in Kutina there is no official record of any Jews there. The only evidence of their existence in Kutina today is their gravestone at the Jewish Cemetery.
