The Sion Neolog Synagogue & Jewish History Museum Oradea
About this experience
In the Museum of Jewish History in Oradea – housed in the Aachvas Rein Orthodox Synagogue, built in 1926 – you can take a chronological journey which tells the tale of the city's Jewish population, from their establishment to the subsequent splitting of the community, and the tragic ghettoization and deportation during World War II.
You'll also get to visit the Sion Neolog Synagogue. Dating back to 1878, it's a simplified, modern replica of the one in Nuremberg and can seat up to 1,000 people inside. The building has a basilica-like spatial arrangement with three naves, and the exterior's central section is reminiscent of the architecture of the Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
