Emancipation vs. Hassidut

Through the 19th century, emancipation brought both new opportunities and deepening divisions within Hungarian Jewry between Orthodox and secular Jews. While Hasidic courts thrived in rural villages, the progressive Neologs and conservative Orthodox were numerically balanced but ideologically opposed. We will also visit the Miskolc Synagogue (1856–63) and Pest’s grand Dohány Synagogue (1856), symbols of these diverging identities.
