Radzymin (Hasidic Dynasty)

Radzymin was a Polish Chasidic dynasty named after its founder Yaakov Aryeh Guterman's hometown of Radzymin.

[citation needed] Jews had first started settling in Radzymin in the middle of the seventeenth-century.

By 1840 the community erected their first synagogue.

[1] In 1848, after the death of Rabbi Yitzchok of Vurka,[2] Rabbi Yaakov Guterman founded the Radzymin dynasty and brought the teachings of the Baal Shem Tov to Radzymin making it a Chasidic centre.
