The agenda of the City National Committee of Rožňava holds records of the city administration in the period between 1945 and 1990. A specific segment of the archival collections preserves archival materials related to the immediate post-WWII period when Holocaust survivors were returning from the concentration camps and were trying to get back their confiscated real estate and movable property. The collection contains many applications and requests of different types for the recovery of their taken property (apartment, house, furniture, shops, household, other movable property items, etc.). A specific segment of the archival collections contains different types of inventories of former Jewish properties prepared by the city administration. One might find here files concerning the appointment of national guardians for Jewish real estate too. The archival collection contains relevant documents also on the situation of the Jewish religious community and its real estate properties in the post-war years and later. The archival fond holds documents connected to the most important Jewish families in Rožňava, the Lissauers, the Roths, and many others.
