Rabbi Moshe Schreiber (Sofer), known as the Chatam Sofer, was the preeminent leader of Judaism in the Austro-Hungarian Empire during the first part of the 19th century.
Based in Pressburg (today Bratislava, Slovakia), he founded a yeshivah that produced learned, confident, and pious rabbis and laypeople who led successive generations of Orthodox Jewry in Central Europe.
after the Chatam Sofer’s passing in 1839 at the age of 77, his influence was keenly felt through the institutions he built, the students he guided, and the Torah thoughts he wrote—each of which has indelibly left their mark on Jewish life.
