synagogue, judaism
The second largest synagoge in Budapest.
The Orthodox synagogue in Rumbach Street was built in 1872 to the design of the Viennese architect Otto Wagner.
The Moorish Revival synagogue has eight sides and although the interior is under restoration, the octagonal, balconied, domed synagogue intricately patterened and painted in Islamic style is exquisitely beautiful. It was built not as an exact replica of, but as an homage to the style of the octagonal, domed Dome of the Rock Muslim shrine in Jerusalem.
It is a beautiful combination of Moorish, Islamic and Art Nouveau style.
