Summary/Abstract: The article was devoted to the issues of the Jewish minorities in Poland, considering the effects of the activity of the Jewish commune in Wrocław. The author claimed that, over the past two decades in Poland, there has been a noticeable change in selfperception of the Jewish minority as well as in the way of the commune’s communicating with the environment. The point being made here is mainly related to the transformation of the modern Jewish culture identity (their renewal), from memories generally related to Holocaust and the drama of the II World War to complete participation in the sociocultural life of the Polish society. The author brings specific examples of the contemporary active participation of the Jewish society in the modern Polish culture.
