Dr. Bruno Horovic is a busy man. In addition to serving as head of the Jewish community here, Horovic is working on turning Dubrovnik’s historic synagogue into a museum of Judaica.
He is also attempting to locate the city’s Jewish archives, which were stolen by the Nazis in 1941.
It is all in a day’s work for the 72-year-old retired pulmonary diseases specialist who leads a community of just 45 members.
Despite the small size of the Jewish community in this city on the Adriatic Sea, Horovic is convinced that it has a bright future.
