Rabbi Meir Wunder, the leading scholar and documenter of the Torah world in Galicia, has passed away

On Shabbat, the 2nd of Sivan 5784 (June 8, 2024), Rabbi Meir Wunder passed away at the age of ninety. He was a prolific scholar, librarian, bibliographer, editor and teacher, and a founder and member of the board of the Jewish Galicia and Bukovina Organization.

Rabbi Wunder’s deep commitment to his ancestral heritage – the rabbinic heritage of Galician Jewry – is most impressively expressed in his many works. His monumental work Meorei Galitziah: Entziklopediah le-Hakhmei Galitziah [The Lights of Galicia: An Encyclopedia for Galician Sages], his research trips to Galicia, and his tireless activity for many years as the founder and chairman of the Institute for the Commemoration of Galician Jewry (since 2011, the Jewish Galicia and Bukovina Organization) contributed greatly to research, commemoration and raising of the general public’s awareness of the treasures of Jewish culture from this important diaspora.
