About CEJHG

The Association for Central European Jewish History and Genealogy was established in September 2025 and is dedicated to to advancing the study of Jewish history and genealogy across the lands of the former Habsburg Empire / Austria-Hungary and its successor states.


We bring together researchers, academics, and passionate enthusiasts from around the world who share a love for these interconnected histories.


Our mission is to foster collaboration, develop better tools and databases to support interdisciplinary research, and create a vibrant, inclusive community for like-minded people where knowledge and ideas can flourish.


We promote cooperation and collaboration, enriching the field through joint efforts and collective knowledge.


Whether you want to expand your knowledge, volunteer for related causes, or participate in an international network, you'll find a welcoming space here. Together, we can preserve and illuminate the rich Jewish heritage of Central Europe.
