Hun: Szerednye, Ukr: Serednie, Yid: סערעדנא
Szerednye is close to Uzhhorod, on the road to Munkács. The first Jewish family settled here around the middle of the 18th century. By 1830, the settling families had formed a community of 256 people. By 1880, their population had reached 289, which increased further by 1910 and 482 members of the community. During the 1941 census, 619 Jews lived in Szerednya, forming a significant community. The community was founded around 1810, and the community operated with a synagogue and rabbi. The community operated as a branch community and the surrounding smaller communities belonged to the Rabbinate of Serednye. Beginning with the formation of the community, the first rabbi in Szerednye was Rabbi Mendeli, who led the community until his death in 1840. As Rabbi Meir Eisenstadter (Ash) had a great influence on the community in Szobránc for a while, he also occupied the rabbi's chair here. He was followed by Rabbi Jacob Yechezkia Grünwald (his tombstone is seen at the top of the cemetery with the building symbol). Five followed by the death of his brother-in-law, Rabbi Shulem Adler, in 1869, whose significant work, Sefer Rav Shulem, was published by his brother-in-law, Rabbi Elijahu Shterenhel Szerednyei Dajan, after Shulem's death. Schulem was followed by his son, Rabbi Menachem Yehuda Adler, and then during Czechoslovak times Jichak Alizik Adler was the chief rabbi. With the death of Aizik Adler, his son-in-law Rabbi Yoev Adler led the Rabbinate of Szerednye while his son Rabbi Chaim Nuchem Adler led the communities belonging to the branch. The last rabbi was Emanuel Naftali Menachem, who died in Auschwitz.
