Dear Friends, 

We regret to inform you that we at the Bardejov Jewish Preservation Committee had to make the difficult decision to postpone our 2024 Commemoration due to security concerns in Slovakia. 

We understand that this may cause you inconveniences which we are terribly sorry for, but it is our utmost duty to ensure everyone’s safety during this time.

We will of course keep you updated with the new date as soon as we have selected it. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to email us. 

Sincerely,

The BJPC Team
