The Significance of Liska in Jewish History and Religion



Since the early 1800s, Liska has been a key center of Jewish life, known for its thriving cultural and religious community. Each year, Liska draws thousands who come to honor the legacy of Hershele Lisker, also known as Tzvi Hirsh Liska. The village hosts more than 500 Jewish historical sites, including cemeteries and places of worship that represent a rich heritage. By the late 1800s, Liska had a largely Jewish population, with around 3,000 residents contributing to its vibrant life. The influence of Liska’s heritage extends to nearby towns like Kerestir, shaping Jewish life across Hungary. Close to 5,000 visitors arrive annually in Liska, reflecting its role as a spiritual destination.
