Solotvin Culture
Cultural life is a major part of Jewish Solotvin heritage. Solotvin had many schools both modern and traditional. A state-run school was established in Solotvin in 1804 (link). In the 1880s, there existed a state-run two-grade school (Słownik, 11:66).
In 1877 there were a number of Cheders - traditional Jewish studying programs for children (see document)
A vocational school for Jews was established by the Baron Hirsch foundation in 1894 and existed until World War I (Ha-magid, no. 30, 26 July 1900, p. 349; Ha-magid, no. 22, 6 June 1901, p. 247; Pinkas Kehilot, 350).
A private school for teaching Hebrew was opened in Solotvin in 1906-07 by the association "Safah Brurah" (Pure Language). In 1911, there were 100 students and one teacher, Michael Kleiner (Gelber, Toldot, 2:726; cf. 712). Another Hebrew school was established in the same year by the local committee of the Austrian Hebrew Teachers Association; there were 46 students in 1911, who were taught by the same teacher Michael Kleiner (Gelber, Toldot, 2:727).
In the interwar period, Jewish children were also enrolled in the Polish school, the new building which was built at expense of a local Jewish donor, the oil businessman Kaufmann in 1931 (link).
