Dolga Vas, a suburb of Lendava contains one of the three Jewish cemeteries still maintained in Slovakia. Most of the burials are from the 19th century, but some date to the end of the 20th century. The Synagogue in Lendava is maintained today as a concert and exhibition center. Most of the Lendava Jews were deported to Auschwitz in the Shoah but a few survivors reportedly returned.
