Vizhnitz
ויז'ניץ
Vizhnitz grew out of the Kosov dynasty. It was founded in Vyzhnytsia by Rebbe Menachem Mendel Hager, the Tzemach Tzaddik, a grandson of the Kosov founder and a son-in-law of the Ruzhiner. After the Holocaust the dynasty was rebuilt in Eretz Yisroel under the Imrei Chaim and then divided between Bnei Brak and Monsey. Seret-Vizhnitz and other branches also descend from it.
