Hungary’s second-largest synagogue, and the fourth-largest in the world, the Neolog Synagogue is spellbinding, both for its dimensions and the beauty of its ivory blue and gold decoration.
Completed in 1907, it was designed with a mixture of Historicism and Art Nouveau, and has lots of symbolism hidden in its interior.
The central dome is almost 50 metres high, and has graded starry blue windows by the master glass painter Manó Róth, who produced the rest of the synagogue’s ethereal stained glass.
