Budapest Jewish Heritage Tour
Overview
Explore the Historic Jewish Quarter, one of the oldest and most popular parts of Budapest!
This living quarter is uniquely characterised by the culture of the Jewish community (the largest Jewish community of about 80 000 people lives in Budapest, in East-Central Europe) that settled down here centuries ago.
The third largest synagogue in the world (the second largest one in Europe), the Jewish Museum and Archives with a rich collection and the most important Jewish religious and cultural institutions are located here.
The quarter has been on the list of the UNESCO World Heritage since 2002.
Let's discover the history, costumes, traditions and festivals together!
PLEASE NOTE, THAT THE SYNAGOGUES AND THE MUSEUM ARE CLOSED ON FRIDAYS' AFTERNOON AND ON SATURDAYS' BECOUSE OF THE 'SABBATH'!
