Synagogue Zalaegerszeg, Moorish Revival synagogue in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary
The synagogue features intricate tilework patterns, horseshoe arches, and ornamental details that reflect Islamic architectural influences throughout its exterior and interior spaces.
Construction of the synagogue began in 1904, during a period when Jewish communities across Central Europe experienced growth and established new religious buildings.
The synagogue incorporates essential elements for Jewish worship, including a Torah ark for sacred scrolls and an elevated platform for reading religious texts.
The building remains an active center for religious services, educational programs, and community gatherings in the western region of Hungary.
The architectural design combines Middle Eastern and Spanish Moorish elements, creating a structure that stands apart from traditional Hungarian religious buildings.
