The 585,000 m² walk through the Jewish Quarter of District VII presents the history of nine buildings through an audio guide and a short film created by a young filmmaker/visual artist. The walk is based on an exhibition held in 2016, titled 585,000 m² – A Multimedia Exhibition on the Past and Present of Budapest’s Jewish Quarter. The title refers to the area of the Jewish Quarter, highlighting the dense urban environment imbued with urban culture, religious revival, and community life.
The buildings featured in the walk symbolize three fundamental, cultic aspects of Jewish life: sacred spaces, communal places, and organic small businesses. The video works reflect the existence and functions of these buildings, capturing the stories through a variety of technical approaches, sometimes abstract, sometimes direct. The exhibition also emphasizes the historically transformative role of this iconic area, bridging the past and present, history and art.
The first video serves as an introductory story for discovering the Jewish Quarter. The second is an audio piece about the history of the Orczy House – Madách House, followed by a video work. We can listen to and watch the stories of nine buildings while exploring the different parts of the Jewish Quarter, either individually or in groups, using the website below: 585000m2

The Time Traveler interactive Jewish social history educational material consists of several parts, which can be used together or individually, both inside and outside the classroom. Its primary target group is students in grades 11-12, but it may also be of interest to adults. The Time Traveler educational content is based on a social history curriculum, which can be freely downloaded from the Time Traveler website under the "Social History" section. This material covers the social history of the old Jewish Quarter of Pest between 1830 and 1989, divided into four historical periods.
Within this, a 120-minute drama pedagogy session has been created for the interwar period, as well as an online interactive game. The online game can be played by anyone who registers on the website. To register for the drama pedagogy session, please contact: timetraveler.hu@gmail.com.
