Ceremony on the occasion of the 100th birthday of Kurt Schubert (1923 – 2023) on 28 March 2023, 6 p.m., at the 'Grosser Festsaal' (large ceremony hall) of the University of Vienna. On the initiative of Prof Ingeborg Fialová and with the help of Kurt Schubert, in 2006 a Chair for Jewish Studies was established at the University of Olomouc, as part of the Institute for German Studies. In 2008, the Chair was officially renamed the 'Kurt and Ursula Schubert Center for Jewish Studies'. Later, the Institute headed by Ivana Cahova, became independent.
