Budapest Jewish Heritage: Synagogues, Shoes, Secrets & Flódni
Budapest Jewish Heritage: Synagogues, Shoes, Secrets & Flódni — Private Walking Tour (2.5 hours)
Take a personalized walking tour with a historian guide to uncover Budapest’s rich Jewish heritage. Explore the historic Jewish Quarter and key memorials while tracing the community’s 19th-century integration, the rise of 20th-century antisemitism, and the devastation of the Holocaust. Learn about everyday customs, life in the ghetto after the 1944–45 German occupation, and why many survivors regarded the Red Army’s 1945 arrival as liberation. Along the way, discover landmark synagogues, hidden courtyards and stories behind the “Shoes on the Danube,” and see how Jewish contributions still shape the city’s architecture, culture and food today.
Optional treat: we’ll stop for a flódni tasting (own expense) — flódni is a classic Hungarian-Jewish layered pastry with poppy seed, walnut, apple, and plum jam between thin pastry sheets (contains nuts and gluten).
