Here you can take a glimpse at the history of the local Jewish community in Zalaergerszeg, our architectural legacy, spherical spires, colourful windows. Do not miss this fascinating and impressive institution, as not only is it historically significant, but it is also one of the centre points of the city both geographically and architecturally. Therefore, together with its concerts, it is the heart of local cultural life.
The building is a great example of the eclectic synagogue-architecture, long ago its interior used to be decorated with colourful paintwork and stuccoes. It lost its religious function after the world war, and has been renovated and used as a concert and exhibition hall since 1983. Beside the temporary exhibitions, a composition about the history of the town’s Jewish community can be viewed on its upper floor, where the main point of interest is the floor map.
