Life in Lublin

Lublin, Poland

We visited the city's smaller cemetery and saw the graves on the Maharal and the Chozeh. We also learned about Chassidism and the swiftness with which it grew as a movement. 

Next we went to the Yeshivat Chachmei Lublin. This yeshiva had a very short lifespan because it was established only a few years before the war broke out. It set the model for modern yeshivot and midrashot. We all learned with a chavruta in te beit Midrash and then sang songs together. It's a happy memory.
