The '''Heichal Menachem''' Center - Monsey, New York is one of the network of Heichal Menachem centers worldwide.

Founded on 19 Kislev 5759 (1998), by the shliach Rabbi Gedalia Oberlander, author of books on halacha and Jewish customs, and editor of the "Or Yisroel" journal and the Chassidic journal Heichal HaBaal Shem Tov.

In the year 5772 (2012), the founder's son, the shliach Rabbi Dovid Oberlander, began managing the activities.

== Chassidic Library ==
The 'Heichal Menachem' Center maintains an extensive library available to the general public, where one can sit comfortably and learn. The library contains a collection of Torah and Chassidus books, Chassidic bulletins and journals - close to 20,000 books!

Additionally, there are software programs such as Otzar HaChochma and Otzrot HaTorah - for use by the general public.

In the year 5775 (2015), a "Chassidic Lending Library" was also opened, from which selected Chassidic books can be borrowed for a certain period.

== Beis Medrash 'Ner Yisroel' ==
Beginning in the year 5766 (2006), the 'Heichal Menachem' Center has operated a Chassidic beis medrash, in which prayers and Chassidus classes are held every Shabbos, and farbrengens are held on every special Shabbos.

Several times a year, a guest mashpia is brought in for a Shabbos filled with Chassidus, to deliver shiurim and farbreng with the general public.

Rabbi Gedalia Oberlander serves as the rav of the beis medrash.
