Újpest Synagogue

Újpest Synagogue, Religious building in Budapest District IV, Hungary

Újpest Synagogue is a Neolog Jewish synagogue at 8 Berzeviczy Gergely Street in Újpest, Budapest District IV, built in 1885–1886 in a neo-Moorish style. Its three-aisle hall with side galleries follows the layout of the Dohány Street Synagogue, with cast-iron columns carrying the galleries and staircases at the ends of the aisles. The organ stands on the gallery opposite the Torah ark.

The synagogue was built in 1885–1886 on Berzeviczy Street; the press of the time named a designer called Greier or Gränner, whom some identify with Jakob Gärtner. It was one of Újpest's first representative public buildings, and in 1909 Lipót Baumhorn drew up its enlargement. Attacked, looted and set on fire in 1944, it was restored by 1946, and in 1947–1948 four reliefs were placed on the garden wall.

The synagogue serves as a gathering place where the local Jewish community comes together for worship and religious celebrations. Visitors can experience how traditions continue to shape the rhythm of community life here.

The synagogue is located in a residential neighborhood and is accessible by public transportation. Visitors should check ahead about visiting hours and active services, as some areas may have restricted access times.

The synagogue's interior follows the layout of the Dohány Street Synagogue, with three aisles and side galleries. Cast-iron columns with Byzantine-style capitals support the gallery, and the organ above the Torah ark came from the Kecskemét synagogue, damaged in the 1911 earthquake. It was moved to the opposite gallery after World War II.
