Liska’s Role in Jewish Spiritual Heritage

From the 19th century, Liska has served as a focal point of Jewish community and tradition. Every year, thousands honor Tzvi Hirsh Liska, also known as Hershele Lisker, in Liska. The village hosts more than 500 Jewish historical sites, including cemeteries and places of worship that represent a rich heritage. Close to 3,000 Jewish residents called Liska home by the late 1800s, creating a lively community. Liska’s heritage resonates in neighboring communities such as Kerestir and throughout Hungary. Today, Liska attracts around 5,000 visitors annually, each drawn by its historical and spiritual significance.
