Yeshivas that relocated

Question

BS"D

Which yeshivot relocated throughout the 20th century due to war, pogroms, etc.?

For example, I know that The Mir Yeshiva moved to Shanghai in 1941.

Are there any other similar yeshivot?

Do any of them exist today (like in Eretz Yisrael)?

Please provide sources for your answers.

Answer 1

1. Slabodka Yeshiva was originally in Lithuania and after the ravages of WWI and enforced military conscription in the years that followed, they established a branch in Chevron in 1924. Following the Chevron Massacre they then moved again to Yerushalayim.

2. Ponovezh Yeshiva was founded in 1908 and was also originally located in Lithuania. It moved to Bnei Brak in 1944.

3. Telz/Telshe Yeshiva was originally in the town of Telz, Lithuania. During the Holocaust, Rabbis Elya Meir Bloch and Chaim Mordechai Katz were on a fund-raising mission in America and realised that their only option to ensure the continuity of the Yeshiva was to relocate the whole yeshiva to Cleveland, Ohio.
