After the renovation, the unique K\u0151szeg Synagogue opened its doors to the public with new activities and rich cultural events as part of the city\u2019s cultural heritage.
\nOn the 28th and 29th of August 2022, the Institute of Advanced Studies K\u0151szeg (iASK) contributed to the series of events for the national Week of Synagogues. During the two-day event, iASK presented the life of the synagogue\u2019s builder, Philip Schey, and the Schey family with an exhibition, a series of lectures, a round table discussion, a book launch and a guided tour. The series of events began with the opening of the exhibition entitled \u201cA Success Story from K\u0151szeg: The Schey Family\u201d<\/em>, with a message from Kathy Henderson of the London branch of the Schey family.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the mid-1990s, Ferenc Miszlivetz, Director General of the Institute of Advanced Studies K\u0151szeg, has made it his mission to save and restore this romantic building of unrivalled beauty. The restoration of the complex and its gardens was approved by the government in 2013. The restoration itself was eventually carried out under the K\u0151szeg KRAFT programme. Following the building\u2019s reacquisition and structural conservation, the project, which included the rabbinical buildings and the garden, began in the autumn of 2020 and was completed in January 2022.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the rehabilitation of the building and its surrounding landscape, the synagogue complex will have a number of functions that fulfil religious, cultural and public needs. After many years of disuse, the synagogue can once again be used as a place of worship, if required.<\/p>\n

The Institute of Advanced Studies K\u0151szeg supports a Working Group that carries out historical research on the cultural life and activities of the Jewish communities in the region of Western Pannonian. This includes studying their impact on society and the modernisation of the region\u2019s cities. The results of this research will be regularly presented in temporary and permanent exhibitions.<\/p>\n

The fate of the building and the process of its renovation have already attracted considerable national and international interest. Its construction in 1856 was financed by Philip Schey, who rose from a retailer in K\u0151szeg to the baronial rank of a Viennese businessman. Descendants of the Schey family have followed the developments from Austria, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States of America.<\/p>\n

The synagogue\u2019s rebirth has reconnected the town of K\u0151szeg to the national and international bloodstream in an unprecedented way. This will make K\u0151szeg one of the Central European centres of heritage-based experiential tourism in the spirit of the KRAFT program\u2019s objectives.<\/p>\n
