Rumbach Street synagogue, Moorish Revival synagogue in Budapest District VII, Hungary
The Rumbach Street Synagogue features an octagonal structure with multiple domes and intricate Islamic-style decorations throughout its interior and exterior walls.
Built in 1872 under Otto Wagner's direction, the synagogue represented the status quo ante community that maintained a unified position between Orthodox and Neolog sects.
The synagogue serves as a cultural center since its 2021 renovation, hosting concerts, exhibitions, and events that connect visitors with Hungarian Jewish traditions.
Located at Rumbach Sebestyen Street 11-13, the building opens daily for visits, offering guided tours in multiple languages through its architectural elements.
The synagogue combines Moorish Revival and Art Nouveau styles, displaying an eight-sided layout that differs from conventional religious structures of its period.
