This project seeks to collect all of the Jewish families from the town of Levice, Slovakia.

Levice, (Hungarian: Léva, German: Lewenz), district town in the Tekov county, Southern Slovakia.

Levice's synagogue is a Roman-Classistic building built in 1857. It is a hall-type Jewish house of worship with a gallery for women. There is a richly decorated triangular font on the entrance with plastic ornaments and heightening, which shows the Ark of the Covenant. It was undergoing restoration when this photo was taken.
