Origins of a Jewish Homeland
Jewish settlement in Lithuania dates back to the Middle Ages, where they found refuge from religious persecution in Western Europe. Over time, they established thriving communities in cities like Vilnius, Kovno, and Shavli. By the 19th century, Lithuania had become a significant hub for Jewish culture and scholarship, boasting renowned rabbis and intellectuals.
Rising Anti-Semitism and the Holocaust
As tensions rose in Europe, anti-Semitism reared its ugly head in Lithuania. Nationalistic sentiments and economic instability fueled hatred towards the Jewish community, culminating in the outbreak of the Holocaust during World War II. Nazi Germany and its local collaborators carried out systematic extermination, targeting Jewish communities throughout the country.
