Title:

Mediaș Jewish Community Collection

Description:

The Medias Jewish Community Collection contains material spanning the life of the community, with documents dating from the late 19th century until the end of the communist era as well as general administrative paperwork into the 1990s (when the community, for all intents and purposes, no longer existed). The bulk of the material is from the mid-20th century (1940s-1970s) and of administrative or financial nature. Several extensive items of particular historic significance have been digitized and are available below in Series III: the 500-page book of meeting minutes covering board member and community meetings from 1930-1947 (Box OS21); hundreds of registration forms created by the Jewish Council (Centrala Evreilor) during the war which recorded an individual's family background up to the grandparents (names, birthplaces and date) (Box OS18 and OS19); the burial registry with details on tombstone location, date (and sometimes cause) of death and accompanying index of names (OS13); and the cemetery map (last item in Series III). The original statutes of the community, in Hungarian from 1894, as well as later German and Romanian versions, are also digitized and can be found in Series V (SD2/folder 2). The material in this collection may be of interest to those researching Jewish life, identity, and culture in southern Transylvania before and during World War II and Jewish life under the Romanian communist government. For additional details on the contents of each series, please see the comprehensive container list below. The collection is arranged by series and chronologically within each series.

Provenance:

The Mediaș Jewish Community Collection was compiled over the course of the existence of the community (unofficially founded in the 1850s), though extant documents date only from the end of the 19th century. The documents were housed variously in the synagogue and community offices in a building adjacent to the synagogue. Due to mass migration of members, the community eventually disappeared; the archives, siddurim, and other objects were deposited in the women's balcony of the synagogue, which was made inaccessible to visitors. As a result of a clean-up effort in 2008, the archives and associated material were rediscovered and in 2014-2015 a grant to catalogue, process and selectively digitize the material was secured. The material is now fully catalogued and housed in the former community offices in appropriate archival storage containers. Digitization of select items of particular historical interest is on-going.

Scope and Content: This series contains several titles of post-war newspapers and magazines, both Romanian and from Germany and USSR. Some of the issues are missing, but they are covering a wide stretch of time, from the early 50's until the late 90's. The issues of the Romanian Jewish community newspaper, initially called Revista Cultului Mozaic (now, Realitatea Evreiasca), start with the very first issue, in 1956 and ends in 1992, presumably when the Jewish Community in Medias stopped its activity. Other newspapers are Hungarian (Az Uj Kelet Szombatja) with a few issues, a footbal magazine (issued as a supplement to a bigger newspaper), called Fotbal, and a German Jewish newspaper, called Allgemeine Jüdische Wochenzeitung, with issues from 1989 until 1991. The magazines, one from the Democrat German Republic and one from USSR, feature mostly propagandist photographs and articles from the post-war period (early and mid 50's).
