Lauder – Lea Deutsch Elementary School

The Lauder – Lea Deutsch Elementary School is an elementary Jewish day school in Zagreb, Croatia. It opened on September 1, 2003, and is the first school under Jewish auspices in the country since the Jewish Elementary School closed in 1941. It is named after Lea Deutsch, a girl who died during the Holocaust, and the Ronald S. Lauder foundation which supports the school.

Today, the school is closed and, instead of Lauder - Lea Deutch, there is a new Jewish elementary school in Zagreb - Lauder - Hugo Kon, which was founded by new Jewish religious community - Bet Israel in Zagreb.
