This project seeks to collect all of the Jewish families from the village of Osvračín (Wostraschin) in Bohemia, Czech Republic.
Osvračín is a municipality and village in Domažlice District in the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 600 inhabitants. Osvračín lies approximately 12 kilometres (7 mi) north-east of Domažlice, 36 km (22 mi) south-west of Plzeň, and 119 km (74 mi) south-west of Prague.
The International Jewish Cemetery Project offers only one minor note about this town's cemetery: "OSVRACIN: (Wostratschin German) also used cemetery at Puclice". Additional comments in the Jewish Cemetery Project refer to the towns of Horsovsky Tyn, Kanice, Kollautschen, Stankov, Kolovec, Domazlice as using the cemetery at Puclice.
in 2010, my wife, Toba, and I along with our guide, Julius Muller from Prague, visited several towns in the Klatovy District including Osvracin.. The following document: https://tinyurl.com/bohemiatrip2010th contains a guidebook prepared by Julius, photos from the cemeteries in the district and more. Please feel free to share.
