Podolia (Ukraine)

Nemyriv (Nemirov), a town in Podolia (today in Vinnytsia Oblast, western Ukraine), was the hometown of Rabbi Nathan Sternhartz (Reb Noson, 1780-1844), the chief disciple and scribe of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, who recorded and transmitted his teachings and preserved the Breslov movement after the rebbe's death. The town's Jewish community also suffered greatly in the Khmelnytsky massacres of 1648.
