Abstract: The article analyzes material gathered for the project “Vojvodina Holocaust Memorials”, which studies patterns of Holocaust commemoration in Vojvodina. This comprises pioneering research that seeks to contribute to contemporary discussions on cultural memory, introducing the case of the Vojvodina Holocaust memorials. The article focuses on memorials located in Jewish cemeteries and at the sites of destroyed synagogues. After an introduction and brief historical survey of Vojvodina’s Jewry, the article provides more detailed analysis of the memorials and commemoration patterns of the Holocaust victims developed by both the Jewish and general community.
