Sinagoga Mare Ortodoxă
Built in 1890 to plans by Nándor Bach, the Great Orthodox Synagogue is considered one of the most richly decorated synagogues of the former Austro-Hungarian monarchy, with seats for 600 men and 450 women. Restored and reinaugurated in 2018, it stands at the heart of what became the Oradea ghetto in 1944, with a Holocaust memorial in its courtyard.
