The area
Address
Neighbourhood: District VII / Jewish Quarter
District VII is the very heart of Budapest and houses the city’s Jewish Quarter. Its streets are lively and colorful, its buildings narrate different histories in an assortment of architectural styles, and its cafes and bars are frequented and loved by the enthusiastic crowds. Grand and magnificent, the striking star of the district is the Great Synagogue, the largest in Europe and one of the biggest in the world. Distinctly Moorish in style, crowned by the twin onion shaped domes, the Synagogue is the very emblem of District VII and one of the main attractions in the capital.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Although small, this synagogue is stunning and worth a visit. The style is beautiful yet a contrast to the other synagogues in Budapest. We got to explore it on our own, while we wish there were more visitors, it allowed us to go slowly and really take in the grandeur. There were helpful information panels throughout the synagogue. Well worth a visit.

This is a beautiful synagogue in the Jewish quarter in Budapest.
While not as grand nor impressive as the nearby great synagogue, it's still worth a visit.

If the beaten track this small synagogue was well worth the 1000 HUF entrance fee.
It was beautiful inside and you could walk around freely.
No museum or guided tour but worth 10 minute look.
The ceiling was aesthetic and would not be out of place in an Italian art gallery.

A must see. The second largest synagogue in the world. Beautiful place with amazing architecture. You must pay to enter though.

Whilst it may not be as grand as THE synagogue down the road, this is perhaps a better example of how Hungarians Jews worshipped for years. It’s an impressive building with a beautiful interior.

Would be nice if they would give some historical information about it. It was quite plain, and you pay an entrance fee just to spend around 10min in there.

Really loved this synagogue. It is a traditional orthodox synagogue (that still operates!) with Art Nouveau inspired interiors. Far less glamorous than the Dohany synagogue, and no one will give you a tour here, but personally I felt far more connection to the place. Please leave a tzddakah (donation) in one of the boxes on the wall inside the synagogue, as the synagogue clearly needs some money for upkeep. Would love to visit it again some day and attend Shabbat service if I'm ever in Budapest in the future.

Having been to the Central Synagogue, it was nice to go to a smaller one and for different types of Jews. A great visit.

The synagogue was built in the secession style and was in a bad state of disrepair during the communist period. It has now been beautifully restored and is well worth a visit. It is not as large as the main synagogue (nor as busy) but the unusual combination of secession style and Orthodox Judaism makes it unique. Don't miss it if you are in the Jewish quarter.

buongiorno,all'esterno della sinagoga non ce' problema per la circolazione con animali,cani in specialmodo,ma all'interno e' proibito,anche per rispetto del lugo ,almeno fino all'anno scorso che l'ho visitata era cosi,arrivederci e buon viaggio,consiglio la parte di buda con il castello e bastion pescatori,ma ancora meglio per i cani e passeggiate, fatevi un giro all'isola margherita,500 metri dopo il parlamento di budapest,un luogo incantevole.
