About Pinsk
Pinsk, a city in the Polesia region of southern Belarus, had a large Jewish community and was a major center of both Lithuanian Torah learning and chasidut. Its suburb of Karlin gave its name to the Karlin (Karlin-Stolin) chasidic dynasty, founded in the 1760s by Rabbi Aharon the Great of Karlin, a disciple of the Maggid of Mezeritch, from where chasidut spread through Lithuania and Belorussia.
