Jewish Architecture Gutman and Kirzner’s Kloyz (Habad Lubavich Hasidim Kloyz) in Vilna (Vilnius), Lithuania
© , Photographer: Unknown,
Gutman and Kirzner’s Kloyz – Habad Lubavich Hasidim Kloyz at 9 Gospital’naia (Ligoninės) Street.
A spacious kloyz with a women’s section on Gospital’naia Street was established by the couple Mr. Gutman and Mrs. Ḥayah Kirzner between 1904 and 1915. In 1916 there were 40–50 worshippers and the founders continued to cover the deficit of the kloyz’s budget. According to Yaffe, the founder transferred the kloyz to the Lubavich Hasidim before his death in ca. 1918. Apparently, the worshippers of the Second Minyan of the Lubavich Hasidim moved to this kloyz. Its interior was decorated with paintings of Biblical scenes. After the establishment of the ghetto on September 6, 1941, a clinic was installed in the kloyz.
