Liska’s Role in Jewish Spiritual Heritage

The Jewish heritage of Liska, prominent since the 1800s, has made it a vital center for religious life. Thousands of pilgrims come annually to pay homage to Tzvi Hirsh Liska, also revered as Hershele Lisker. The village hosts more than 500 Jewish historical sites, including cemeteries and places of worship that represent a rich heritage.

Liska’s influence extends beyond its borders, reaching nearby towns like Kerestir and impacting Jewish life across Hungary. Each year, nearly 5,000 people visit Liska, attracted by its historical and spiritual landmarks.

The preservation of Liska’s heritage relies on both local communities and international organizations.
