After the death of Karel Poláček, the representative of the Jewish Religious Community, the archive material was taken over by the regional museum in Kolín in 1979. In 1980, the documents were sorted, arranged and inventoried and handed over to the district archives.
The beginnings of the Jewish community in Kolin date back to the 14th century. The Jewish community is one of the oldest in Bohemia. In the 16th -17th, its number grew. In 1854 it included 1,700 people. The synagogue was built in the 17th century on the site of an older synagogue from the 16th century. There were two cemeteries in the municipality, from the 15th and 19th centuries. In the 19th century, Jews were members of the town administration, speaking mostly Czech. In 1942, the Jewish population was deported to concentration camps. After the war, the community was restored, but in the 1950s it was dissolved.
