ISTORINIS ŽYDŲ KVARTALAS VILNIUJE

Gana neblogai šiandienos Vilniaus senamiestyje išlikusiose keliose buvusio žydų kvartalo gatvėse ir prasideda šios bendruomenės istorija, įkvėpusi visame pasaulyje pasklidusį Vilniaus kaip Šiaurės Jeruzalės vaizdinį ir aprėpianti įvairialypę vietos žydų veiklą, palikusią pėdsakus meno, mokslo, ekonomikos ar politikos istorijoje Lietuvoje bei už jos ribų.

KULAUTUVOS ISTORINIS ŽYDŲ KVARTALAS

Tarpukariu Kulautuvos kurortas netoli Kauno dėl čia gausiai besilankančių Lietuvos žydų skambiai vadintas „žydų Palestina“. Nors jo peizažai toli gražu nepriminė Palestinos, tačiau poilsio ir ramybės šiame gamtos prieglobstyje ieškojo gausybė vasartojų, žmonės netgi juokdavosi, kad jei nepagydė ypatingas Kulautuvos oras – nebepagydys jau niekas. Nesvarbu, ar labiau norite sveikatintis, ar trokštate pažinti šio kurorto žydų paveldą – pasivaikščiojimas gryname ore visada į naudą!

DRUSKININKŲ ISTORINIS ŽYDŲ KVARTALAS

„Tikra yra, kad Čiurlionis buvo tikras genijus. Ir aš didžiuojuosi gimęs kaime, kurio žemę lietė jo kojos. Mūsų brangieji, nepamirštamieji Druskininkai!“ (Žakas Lipšicas) Taip jau susiklostė, jog rami Druskininkų aplinka nuolat įkvėpdavo menininkus, tame tarpe ir žydus, o ypač – muzikus. 1846 m. šiame miestelyje gimė kantorius, dainininkas ir dirigentas Jokūbas Mošė Abelow, savo talentu išgarsėjęs visoje Lietuvoje ir dažnai kviestas giedoti Didžiojoje Vilniaus sinagogoje.

🏞️ ⚙️ Kretinga is unique because here the local Jewish community had lived in a separate territory, often called Jewish New town. We can see traces of past Jewish economic activity in current day Kretinga. There are remaining saccharin and candles manufacturing buildings, which represents Lithuanian interwar industry. In 2015 the monument to Berek Joselewicz (1764-1809) was built, who was a military officer and fought for the freedom of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

💇 🛍️ Near the historical red brick commercial building (Vilniaus str. 42) you will see two houses, which stands next to each other. These two buildings (Vilniaus str. 37 and 39) are an integral part of Molėtai Jewish history – during the interwar period, Ruvelis Videckis had his barbershop and Bazelis Levinas owned a small grocery store.

🏡 Since the end of the 19th century a Jewish community of around 200 people has built itself a home in Alanta, and the home of the religious Jewish community is not a real home without a synagogue.

🕍 Wooden synagogue with a separate women's balcony, two entrances and even with the heating (a real luxury of that time!) was open in Alanta until 1941. Even though the current condition of the synagogue is not the reflection of its golden times and the wooden building stands in solitude, the environment around it has been tidied up, there are informational signs, introducing everyone interested in the heritage of Jewish community of Alanta.

💰 The building in Teatro square has a lot of history: during the interwar period the Jewish Folk Bank operated in this building, and a little while before that – this building was a home for one of the greatest philanthropists of the city – Julius Ludwig Wiener.

📖 Telšiai Jewish community may be considered as a cradle of Jewish religious and academic thought in Northern Lithuania. After the Second World War, almost all the town’s Jewish community was destroyed, however, various signs and remnants of the town’s Jewish past, their intellectual and cultural achievements could be visible to this day.

🏞️ Located on the stunning banks of the Sruoja stream, the town of Alsėdžiai in north-western Lithuania is also a part of the cultural heritage of Lithuanian Jews. A wooden synagogue built on the small hill in 1932-1934 is present to this day.

🕊️ In the very center of Kretinga town, a monument to Berek Yoselevitz stands, which is also called a column of freedom. Berek was born in Kretinga, he worked as a tradesman, yet he is best known for his contributions in the Polish-Lithuanian uprisings against the Russian Empire. Berek Yoselevitz formed and commanded the first Jewish military unit in modern history.

📚 In 1875 a group of young rabbis established the Telshe Yeshiva. The success of this yeshiva is related to a famous figure – a rabbi and rosh yeshiva Eliezer Gordon (1841-1910), who became the first Rosh of the yeshiva and adopted the modern methods of teaching. During the Second World War, after the Soviet army occupied Lithuania, Telshe Yeshiva, just as other religious institutions, was closed. At the moment this building is being restored and it is planned to be used for cultural and educational purposes.

🕯️ An active Jewish community has been living in Troškūnai for two centuries, but the whole community has been killed during Holocaust, and only the buildings now remind us of its history in town - wooden synagogue built at the beginning of the 20th century and Rabbi`s house next to it.

🏡 However, without the existing local Jewish community the synagogue building has lost its practical purpose and has been pragmatically adapted to the needs of local citizens immediately after the war. 12 synagogue windows with white shutters now frame daily life of local Lithuanians.

📜 It is quite unexpected but during the interwar period, Vilna Jew Rudolf Valsonok was the one who began historical studies of Klaipėda and its surroundings. He analyzed the problematic situation of Klaipėda district both from historical and legal perspectives in his study “The problem of Klaipėda” (1932), in which he justified the legal basis for Klaipėda belonging to Lithuania. If you are in Klaipėda, do not go past I. Kanto street. On the 9th house, you will see the memorial plaque dedicated to R. Valsonok.
