Veretzky is the name of a Hasidic Jewish Rabbinical dynasty originating in Nyzhni Vorota, Ukraine (known as Veretzky in Yiddish), near the borders with Hungary and Slovakia. While the dynasty reestablished its court in the United States, a dynasty of the same name has been recently established in Israel as well.
