Via Sancti Martin

The former synagogue stands in the courtyards of two late medieval buildings in the city centre.The first written records of the Jews of Sopron date back to the 13th century. Built around 1300, the early Gothic synagogue, unique in Central Europe, could not stand in the street line, according to the standards of the time, and therefore has a courtyard in front of it. Only fragments of the building have survived, but the layout has been reconstructed. It houses an exhibition entitled "Forgotten Sopronites".
