Description: Yeshiva Knesses Yisroel in Slabodka, Lithuania was known colloquially as the "mother of yeshivas" and was devoted to the study of the Talmud and Mussar. Founded in 1882, by the “Alter of Slabodka”, Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel, the Yeshiva has survived destruction, exile and upheaval. It has travelled from Slabodka, to Chevron in Eretz Yisrael, to Geula in Yerushalayim and to its present home in Givat Mordechai, near Bayit Vegan.
The Yeshiva carries forward the legacy of Slabodka to new generations.
