The Synagogue of Zalaegerszeg, built in 1904 in the Hungarian city of Zalaegerszeg, exemplifies the Moorish Revival style that characterized many late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century European synagogue architecture. The building's ornamental vocabulary draws from Islamic architectural traditions, a choice reflecting both the cosmopolitan tastes of the period and the Jewish community's aspirations to create a distinctive, dignified place of worship.
