About the tour
They say that one who does not learn from the mistakes of history, could be condemned to repeat it. In addition to its beauty and majesty, if Hungary and Budapest stand out, it is because of its rugged history. During this free tour we will dive through the turbulent past of Hungary during the twentieth century, focusing on both the stage of the so-called "occupation" Nazi, during World War II, as in the more than four decades of socialist regime. Of course, we will address both stories from a perspective that is sure to surprise you. Do you come with us?
WHAT WILL WE VISIT DURING OUR ROUTE?
- Wall of the Jewish Ghetto
- Rumbach Street Synagogue
- Monument to the Righteous Among the Nations
- Kazinczy Street Synagogue
- Szimpla Kertmozi (Ruin Bar)
- Tree of Life
- Great Synagogue of Budapest
- Hotel Astoria
- Sissi Bridge
POINT OF MEETING AND TIME:
Deák Ferenc tér 5, at the exit of the metro station of the same name (where the red, blue and yellow lines cross), in front of the entrance of the cream-colored church. Thursday and Saturday at 4pm.
LOOK FOR THE PURPLE UMBRELLA !!
DURATION:
2 hours and 45 minutes
CONSIDERATIONS:
- The 80% of the tour will take place in the Jewish Quarter and will deal with the events related to the deportations carried out during the Second World War. The remaining 20% will focus on the stage of the socialist regime in connection with the current Budapest. The reason ... we explain it to you at the beginning of the tour!
- Both historical periods will be approached from a well-founded and justified perspective. We, as well as official guides, are social scientists, so although we understand that history can be interpreted from different prisms, we will always give you a vision based on empirical arguments. That is to say, this tour is not based on having learned a script and releasing it by heart, but our idea would be the opposite.
- A minimum number of 6 people is required to start the tour.
- Groups of more than 6 people should consult prior availability.
