Burshtin (Hasidic dynasty)

SUMMARY: Burshtin is a Hasidic dynasty, which is presently located in Boro Park, Brooklyn, NY. The sect originated in Burshtyn, presently located in the Ukraine, but once part of Hungary. Thirty years ago Burshtiner Rebbe, shlit"a, was one of the youngest Rebbe’s in Boro Park due to the fact that he lost his Father at a very young age. Despite his young age people in the community quickly realized that he is outstanding in every way. His grandparents and great grandparents are all from great rabbinical dynasties. With his extraordinary talent and wisdom he is able to teach and inspire his followers with all the great teachings and lessons of the past. He is now widely accepted as a very special person in all aspects of spiritual dimensions. His vast knowledge in every subject of Torah life and a true understanding of people and his warm intrapersonal skills are extremely impressive.

His brother is the Galanter Rebbe of Williamsburg.

Latest Developments in Burshtin: Several years ago a few of the most devoted followers of the Rebbe got together and decided it is time to expand. With Hashem’s help and the great leadership abilities of the Rebbe this great dream turned into reality. The new headquarters of Burshtyn is now in its final stages of completion and it is turning out to be the most beautiful synagogue in the great community of Boro Park.
