Hungarian Jewish Museum

The Theodor Herzl, founder of Zionism, house was demolished in 1896 during the replanning of the city streets. The Hungarian Jewish Museum built in 1930 on this spot has a collection of traditional ritual objects. A large part of the items in the collection were donations by families and Jewish communities and some are rescued objects from synagogues destroyed in the Holocaust, collected after 1945. We walked around the museum and saw many very familiar objects that look like ritual articles still used today by Jews worldwide.Baca lagi
