_______________
The town of Slavita gained renown throughout the Jewish world due to the legendary Slavita Press which was founded and personally managed by the righteous Admor Rabbi Moshe Shapira, son of the Admor Rabbi Pinchas of Koritz.
The Slavita Press was designated exclusively for printing sifrei kodesh, and every sefer was produced with sanctity, by G-d fearing Jews.
