Kazinczy Street Synagogue

The Kazinczy Street Synagogue has become the religious-cultural center of the Orthodox branch of Pest Jewry in Budapest, Hungary. From 1928, the mikveh (ritual bath) functioned in the building, up until the blood-thirsty 1940s (it was only reopened in 2004). The building was located in the area of the Pest ghetto between 1944 and 1945 and was damaged by World War II, when some of the equipment was destroyed. After 1945, the building complex was restored and the equipment was reconstructed.
