With examples taken across the Republic of Macedonia, this paper investigates the symbolic representations of the Jews in Macedonia, i.e. “facilities” that express their identity and history and allow their visibility in the public space. I am speaking here not only for monuments and museums, but also for settlements and other symbols that created / create the image of Jews in Macedonia through time. The goal is to answer a few questions: What are the symbols that represent Jewish history and culture in the public sphere? What do these symbols tell us? What meanings or what emotions do they evoke in people? Of course, the discursive dimension of symbolic representations is very important, especially the socially constructed role which is attributed to those facilities. In accordance with these approaches, the identity construction as one of the key functions of symbolic representation, takes place within the social placed narratives of Jews, which means its dynamics and variables is directly related to social events, political changes, etc.
