Pécs Synagogue, Romanticist synagogue in Kossuth Square, Pécs, Hungary
The synagogue features rounded domes, Hebrew inscriptions on the facade, and brilliantly colored ceiling patterns with intricate stencil work throughout the building.
Three Hungarian architects - Károly Gerster, Frigyes Feszl, and Lipót Kauser - designed this synagogue for the Neolog Jewish community in 1865.
The structure remains the sole surviving synagogue in Pécs, where over 4,000 Jewish community members lived before World War II.
Visitors can enter from May through September, Sunday to Friday between 10 AM to noon and 1 PM to 5 PM, with tickets priced at 800 Ft.
The synagogue contains its original Angster organ and Slavonian oak seating, maintaining the same interior elements since its construction in 1869.
