Dohány Street Synagogue (Dohány utcai Zsinagóga)

Dohány u. 2, Budapest

Built in 1859, the Dohány Street Synagogue (also known as the Great Synagogue) is the largest synagogue in Europe and the second largest in the world. The Synagogue is designed like a basilica and includes some striking Byzantine and Moorish elements. The interior is vast and ornate, with two balconies and, unusually, an organ. Its ark contains 25 torah scrolls taken from other synagogues destroyed during the Holocaust. You can take one of the three Jewish Heritage tours to visit the synagogue and related sights.
