Remembering the murdered and commemorating the horrors of the war were understood by the Jewish communities of post-war Czechoslovakia as a basic prerequisite for the beginning of a new life. In Jewish holy texts and rituals, the name plays a key role. The name as a carrier of memory. Memorial services inluding the names of the murdered relatives were one of the few moments when Jews could remember their dead in the small circle of those who had gone through a similar hell as victims of a genocide, an experience different from other victims of the Nazi occupation.

But who remembers the murdered in Český Těšín today?
