Full description

Description of the private Jewish history tour of Budapest

Budapest is a city that has a rich Jewish history, so it is important to explore the area. The Jewish Quarter of Budapest, also known as District VII, was established by order of Emperor Franz Joseph and is located on the left bank of the Danube. The Jewish Quarter is one of Budapest’s most historic neighborhoods and has a special place in Hungarian culture. 

This tour will take you to some of the most important sites, such as the Dohány Street Synagogue (the largest synagogue in Europe), the Hungarian State Opera House (which was built by Miklós Ybl), the Great Synagogue (built by Ludwig Förster) and more. You will see how Jews lived during different periods of time and how they contributed to the life of the city.

Points of interest on the private Jewish history tour of Budapest

Budapest is the only city in Europe where a Jew can still find traces of his past.

The tour starts at the Dohany Street Synagogue, the largest synagogue in Europe and one of the largest in the world. It was built between 1859 and 1868 in Moorish style, inspired by the mosques that the architect Ludwig Förster had seen on a trip to North Africa.

We will then walk through the Jewish quarter, which houses many synagogues, churches and cemeteries. The tour ends at Heroes’ Square with spectacular views of Budapest and also includes a visit to Matthias Church to enjoy beautiful architecture.

We can also visit places such as:

• Orthodox Synagogue
• Raul Wallenberg Garden
• Holocaust Memorials
• Dohany street Singoga
• Emmanuel Monument
• Jewish Quarter

• Much more!
