From Days Gone By: Lubavitcher Yeshiva in Otwock, 1930s
Sunday marked the 118th anniversary of the founding of Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim in Lubavitch Russia. In this photo, students of the Yeshiva study and converse in front of its home in Otwock, Poland, where it relocated after the Previous Rebbe was expelled from Russia in 1927. Can you identify anyone in the photo?
Last year, the building of the Yeshiva was discovered still standing by publisher and researcher Sila Rosenfeld.

It’s not the yeshiva, its a hotel owned by the Gelbfish family that was used by the yeshiva as a dormitory, because they needed more room. It’s printed in Toldos Chabad B’Polin Lita V’Latvia (Kehot, 5771)
