Sažetak

This paper analyses the orientalising architectural language of reform synagogues in the 19th century, exemplified by the Dohány Temple (Tabak Temple or Dohány Street Synagogue) in Pest built between 1854 and 1859. The paper reflects on the cultural context of the synagogue, its style and debates in the press of the period, that praised ‘Moorish Style’, but emphasised its inferiority vis-à-vis the Gothic or ‘Germanic’, Christian idiom. The paper deals partly with
similarities between the 19th century synagogue and colonial architecture. It ends with a discussion on the historic significance of this genre.
