Most of the Jews in Topoľčany , Slovakia were killed in the Holocaust , which was perpetrated jointly by the collaborationist Slovak State and Nazi Germany . A few hundred survived and returned to the town after the war . Their efforts to regain property that had been " aryanized " increased the hostility and antisemitism of the non-Jewish Slovaks , who began to mount a campaign of intimidation to encourage the Jews to renounce their claims and leave the country . More than 40 Jews were injured in a September 1945 riot , referred to as the Topoľčany pogrom , which became the best known instance of postwar anti-Jewish violence in Slovakia . In the years following the riot , many Jews emigrated . There is no longer a Jewish community in Topoľčany
