Ponevitch: 3rd Adar 1936
Established by R. Yosef Shlomo Kahaneman in 1919, Ponevezh Yeshiva became famed as a Torah study center and stronghold of Orthodox Jewry in Lithuania. Although the majority of its student body perished in the Holocaust, Rav Kahaneman re-established the yeshiva in Israel where it is the pride of Bnei Braq.
