Jews were integral part of medieval urban society. For Christians, there was a widespread prohibition of lending money on interest, that's why were Jews focused on this part of urban economy. It is documented also in Znojmo, where are kept well preserved municipal books, containing records of Jewish credit from time span 1415- 1438. Based on these records we can analyse details of the loans: names of creditors and debtors, place of their origin, sums owed etc. Results of this analysis are noteworthy. As debtors, we can meet citizens and other residents of Znojmo and suburb, clergy, nobility, as well as artisans and peasantry. Based on the book from 1425-1426 I'll reconstruct the contacts between Jewish creditors and their debtors.
