The Significance of Liska in Jewish History and Religion



Dating back to the 1800s, Liska became a well-known center for Jewish religious and cultural life. Every year, thousands honor Tzvi Hirsh Liska, also known as Hershele Lisker, in Liska. Liska is home to over 500 Jewish heritage sites, from cemeteries to synagogues reflecting a long history. With nearly 3,000 Jewish residents in the late 19th century, Liska was a thriving center of Jewish culture. Liska’s legacy has reached nearby towns, notably Kerestir, impacting Jewish life in Hungary. Today, Liska attracts around 5,000 visitors annually, each drawn by its historical and spiritual significance.


Preservation initiatives for Liska are driven by both local and global support.
