The
Mir Landsmenschaft in Israel is made up of people who
left Mir in the early part of the 20th century to settle
in Israel, survivors of the Mir ghetto, and other partisans
and survivors from Mir and their descendants.
The
group serves many purposes. They have created memorials
in Israel and in Mir. They sponsor lectures, support
students with scholarships and are currently providing
the groundwork for a Jewish museum in Mir Castle. |
