Jewish Witness to a European Century
an interactive database of jewish memory
The first oral history project that combines old family pictures with the stories that go with them, Centropa interviewed 1,200 elderly Jews living in Central and Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and the Sephardic communities of Greece, Turkey and the Balkans.
With a database of 22,000 digitized images, we are bringing Jewish history to life in ways never done before.

Ranana Malkhanova
Country: Lithuania
City: Vilnius
Interviewer: Zhanna Litinskaya
Date of interview: February 2005
Ranana Malkhanova is a charming, pretty, and well-dressed lady. We met in her office in Vilnius at the Jewish Community of Lithuania, where she's working as a volunteer. Her fair eyes portray kindness and keen interest. While we were talking, I understood that it wasn't her fashionable garment nor modern hair-cut that made Ranana look so young, it was her spirit: her being outgoing and willing to help anybody in the community or other people. Ranana has a lot of friends in the community and she introduced me to them. I felt the warmth that they shared.
