'''Lubavitch''' (Hebrew: לוּבַּבִיץ, English: Lyubavichi, Russian: Люба́вич, Polish: Lubawicze) is a small town in Russia in the Smolensk region near the Belarus border.


The town of Lubavitch was the residence of most of the Chabad Chassidus Nesi'im, and served as the center of Chabad Chassidus activities for 102 years (1813-1916). As is customary in Chassidic courts, even today, many years after leaving the town, Chabad Chassidus continues to be called "Chabad Chassidus Lubavitch."
