Full description

The Holocaust Memorial Center occupies a refurbished 1920s synagogue and works as both museum and memorial for Hungarian Jewish victims. Reviewers describe eight galleries that follow the fate of the Jewish and Roma communities, with particular attention to the deportations of spring 1944, and highlight the detailed life stories of individual people.

The museum is relatively compact and many labels are in Hungarian with English support. The tone is sober and emotional, so it suits visitors ready for a serious, reflective hour.
