Over fifty years ago, in the summer of 5733 (1973), the Lubavitcher Rebbe sent Rabbi Aryeh Leib and Rebbetzin Sarah Kaplan from the U.S. to Tzfat to plant the seeds of a Chabad community in the city. From those humble beginnings in a small rented apartment in the Old City, the community has blossomed into one of the largest and most influential in Israel \u2014 with schools, synagogues, mikvaot, and a vibrant Chassidic life of Torah and warmth.\u00a0<\/p>

Today, it is home to hundreds of families and an extensive educational network. At its heart, the community stands as a living testament to the Rebbe\u2019s vision \u2014 a vision that continues to inspire and shape the future of Jewish life in Tzfat and beyond.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In 1986, Mikvah Chana was established in Kiryat Chabad, Tzfat, alongside the community\u2019s growing institutions.<\/p>

Over time, it was expanded and renovated to serve local families and visitors.<\/p>

In 2021, with generous community support, the mikvah was renewed and enlarged \u2014 blending modern design and technology with Tzfat\u2019s timeless stone arches and warmth.<\/p>

This renovation highlighted the next step: creating a visitor\u2019s center to share the beauty and meaning of taharah with the wider public.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

At the heart of the new visitor\u2019s center stands HeART of Purity, a striking mural that captures the beauty and depth of taharah.\u00a0<\/p>

Inspired by Rivky Kaplan\u2019s two-and-a-half-year study of family purity, and developed together with her husband, Rabbi Chaim Kaplan, the project was envisioned to help every visitor feel connected to this mitzvah and its timeless sisterhood.<\/p>

What began as a sketch on a pastry bag became a 43-page guide of sources and insights, which Chassidic artist Michael Muchnik magically transformed into a 43 foot \u2014 a vivid journey through generations of Jewish women and their connection to taharah.\u00a0<\/p>

Today, HeART of Purity stands as a moving exhibit, inviting visitors of all backgrounds to explore, reflect, and find themselves in its unfolding story.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
