The Dohány Street Synagogue complex consists of the Great Synagogue, the Heroes’ Temple, the graveyard, the Memorial and the Jewish Museum. Dohány Street has strong Holocaust connotations as it constituted the border of the Budapest Ghetto.

This is a such a beautiful place. I love the ironwork in the gate/grill in the last picture.

It’s a striking building. The clothing racks at the entrance seem very incongruous, a bit jarring in fact.

Yes, everyone is always trying to sell something which is rather sad. It makes everything a bit commercial. Mind you, Budapest isn’t a patch on the UK for commercialism.

During the WWII the boarders changed so frequently it was hard to say where one was actually born. Hubby has some heritage from that country (plus a few more). It truly was amazing how many people stepped up to save others. Thank you for sharing this post. I went to the Wiki article too.
