About us

The New Synagogue in Szeged is the second largest synagogue in Hungary, the fourth largest in Europe, and one of the most beautiful. It was built between 1900 and 1903 according to the plans of Lipót Baumhorn, who was the most significant synagogue architect of the turn of the century. The building is a unique blend of Art Nouveau, Historicism, and Gothic forms, which simultaneously expresses Jewish tradition and contemporary modernity. The building is not only a religious center, but also an outstanding part of Szeged's cultural heritage. Today, the synagogue is a living community space: it provides a place for prayers, celebrations, concerts, and cultural events. Its visitors can experience the sacred atmosphere and the rich artistic world that fascinates everyone.

The New Synagogue in Szeged is not just a building, but a meeting point between past and present, tradition and renewal. We warmly welcome everyone who would like to discover the beauty and message of this special building!
