Liska as a Hub of Jewish Tradition

Annually, thousands of pilgrims visit Liska, honoring Tzvi Hirsh Liska’s memory. With 500+ Jewish heritage sites, including cemeteries and synagogues, Liska is a symbol of enduring heritage. Close to 3,000 Jewish residents called Liska home by the late 1800s, creating a lively community. Liska’s influence extends beyond its borders, reaching nearby towns like Kerestir and impacting Jewish life across Hungary. Today, Liska attracts around 5,000 visitors annually, each drawn by its historical and spiritual significance.
