–: Kalisch

Town in Wielkopolska province, Poland. Kalisz (Yid., Kulish) is considered to be the oldest town in Poland. Jews first settled there as early as the twelfth century, where they minted coins for the prince. In 1264, Prince Bolesław the Pious issued a privilege or charter for Great Poland’s Jews—the first document of its kind in the Polish lands—that became the basis for many subsequent royal privileges. In 1287, a well-organized Jewish community existed with a cemetery.
