Radomsk (Hasidic dynasty)

Radomsk is a Hasidic dynasty named after the town of Radomsko in Lódz province, south-central Poland. The dynasty was founded in 1843 by Rabbi Shlomo Hakohen Rabinowicz (the Tiferes Shlomo), one of the great Hasidic masters of 19th-century Poland. His son, grandson and great-grandson led the dynasty in turn, attracting thousands of followers.
