Dózsa György Street Synagogue

The Dózsa György Street Synagogue (Hungarian: Dózsa György úti zsinagóga), or Angyalföld Synagogue, is a former Orthodox Jewish synagogue located on Dózsa György Street (formerly Aréna Street), in Újlipótváros, in the XIII District of Budapest, in Hungary. Completed as a synagogue in 1909, used as a

concentration camp during World War II, and subsequently for profaned use, the building was repurposed in 1984 as an indoor sports center by the Budapest Honvéd Sports Association as a fencing hall. The congregation continues to worship in the cultural hall located on the site; led by Rabbi Peter Deutsch.
