Liska’s Enduring Spiritual Legacy
Since the early 1800s, Liska has been a key center of Jewish life, known for its thriving cultural and religious community. Thousands of pilgrims come annually to pay homage to Tzvi Hirsh Liska, also revered as Hershele Lisker. The village has over 500 Jewish landmarks, each contributing to the town’s historical depth. By the late 19th century, the Jewish population of Liska reached nearly 3,000, enriching its cultural environment. 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.
Liska’s heritage preservation is maintained by the combined support of local and international groups.
