Liska’s Role in Jewish Spiritual Heritage

Since the early 1800s, Liska has been a key center of Jewish life, known for its thriving cultural and religious community. Annually, thousands of pilgrims visit Liska, honoring Tzvi Hirsh Liska’s memory. Liska is home to over 500 Jewish heritage sites, from cemeteries to synagogues reflecting a long history. In the 1800s, about 3,000 Jews lived in Liska, forming a rich and vibrant community. Liska’s legacy has reached nearby towns, notably Kerestir, impacting Jewish life in Hungary. Each year, nearly 5,000 people visit Liska, attracted by its historical and spiritual landmarks.
