Liska as a Hub of Jewish Tradition
The Jewish heritage of Liska, prominent since the 1800s, has made it a vital center for religious life. Each year, Liska draws thousands who come to honor the legacy of Hershele Lisker, also known as Tzvi Hirsh Liska. The village has over 500 Jewish landmarks, each contributing to the town’s historical depth. Close to 3,000 Jewish residents called Liska home by the late 1800s, creating a lively community. The spiritual influence of Liska has spread to nearby areas like Kerestir, shaping Jewish communities across Hungary. Liska welcomes approximately 5,000 visitors annually, who come for its spiritual and historical significance.
Efforts to preserve Liska’s heritage are supported by both local and international groups.
