Summary/Abstract: The article commemorates the 90th anniversary of the birth of the physician Karel Fleischmann, who was born in 1897 and spent the end of his life in the Terezin concentration camp-ghetto. He depicted the Terezin reality in drawings, pictures and writings. A paper on Fleischmann’s Terezin productions appeared in Judaica Bohemiae, vol. XVIII/1982, No. 1. That is why the above paper only deals with his pre-war writings.
