The Gyöngyös Synagogue is a large Jewish religious structure in Gyöngyös, Hungary.

History[]

The large, domed synagogue was built in 1930 according to the plans of Lipót Baumhorn and his son-in-law in an eclectic style decorated with medieval European and Eastern elements. The large building was severely dilapidated by the beginning of the 21st century and is currently being renovated. It no longer has a religious function, but is intended to serve as a venue for cultural programs in the future.
