HUNGARY/ROMANIA – Cross-border project renovates synagogues for religious tourism

Thanks to a more than €1.41 million grant from the European Union’s European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), two historic synagogues — the Kapolnas street synagogue in Debrecen, eastern Hungary and the Zion synagogue across the border in Oradea (Nagyvarad in Hungarian), Romania — are being restored and will be promoted as part of religious tourism itineraries and cultural and educational programs.
