About Posen (Poznań)

Posen (Polish Poznań), the principal city of Great Poland (Wielkopolska), held one of the most important rabbinates in Poland for centuries. The Maharal (Judah Loew ben Bezalel) was born in Posen and led its community, and later its rav was Rabbi Akiva Eiger, the leading halachic authority of his generation, who served there from 1815 until his death in 1837. Other major authorities were associated with the city's rabbinate and yeshiva.
