Neological synagogue in Eger, Religious building in Eger, Hungary.

The Neological synagogue stood at the intersection of Hibay Károly Street and Kossuth Lajos Street, featuring elements of eclecticism and Art Nouveau styles.

Architect Lipót Baumhorn designed this religious structure, which opened on September 13, 1913, and remained active until World War II before its demolition in 1967.

The synagogue represented the Neolog Jewish community of Eger through its architectural design, incorporating modern religious architectural elements of the early 1900s.

The former location of the synagogue is now occupied by Hotel Unicornis, named after the symbol found in the Eger coat of arms.

The synagogue's design shared architectural similarities with other religious buildings in Szeged and Novi Sad, reflecting Baumhorn's distinctive architectural approach.
