PRESENTATION OF THE DATABASE OF FATALITIES AMONG THE POPULATION IN THE TERRITORY OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA DURING WORLD WAR II AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER IN ŠKOFJA LOKA
On 17 June 2026, our colleagues Dr Mojca Šorn, Dr Marta Rendla, Dr Andrej Pančur and Tamara Logar attended the presentation of the 72nd issue of Loški razgledi, organised by the Museum Society of Škofja Loka at the Sokol Home in Škofja Loka.
On this occasion, they presented the database Fatalities among the Population on the Territory of the Republic of Slovenia during the Second World War and Immediately Afterwards – from the beginnings of systematic recording to its contemporary upgrades and possibilities for use.
Special attention was devoted to the victims of the Second World War in Škofja Loka and its immediate surroundings, highlighting the importance of the database for local history, research on wartime violence and the preservation of the memory of the victims.
The database is available on the SIstory portal: https://www.sistory.si/ww2
We are sharing a few highlights from the event.
