Puppa (Hasidic dynasty)

Pupa is a Hasidic dynasty named after the town of its origin (according to the Yiddish name), also known in Hungarian as Pápa. Before World War II, Puppa had an important yeshiva which produced many well-known Orthodox rabbis in Hungary. The whole community was deported to Auschwitz concentration camp and only a very few individuals came back. Currently there are no Jews in Puppa.

The group is based in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York, with branches in Boro Park section of Brooklyn, Monsey, New York , and Ossining, New York. It is headed by the Pupa Rebbe who has several thousand followers in their Williamsburg location in Brooklyn.
