At Yom Kippur, on Rosh Hashanah, we were always at synagogue. The one in Bielsko was very beautiful and old; I don't remember how many years old [reform synagogue, built in 1879-1881, to plans by the Bielsko architect Karol Korn, styled on the Budapest Dohany Street synagogue]. At one time I even sang in the choir there, but for a very short time. It was destroyed by the Germans after they invaded the town [13th September 1939]. The square is empty there to this day.
