We visit Bardejov, where the UNESCO-listed Jewish Suburbia serves as a testament to a community's history, and Prešov, with its celebrated Judaica collection. Finally, the cinematic connection in Sabinov—the setting for the Oscar-winning film The Shop on Main Street—provides a modern artistic lens through which to view historical events.
