Lonely Planet review for Great Synagogue

The Great Synagogue was built in 1865 and is an important keynote in Jewish history. Jews in the Austro-Hungarian empire were fully emancipated in 1864 (they could finally own land and have a profession), the year when permission was given to build the synagogue. It once hosted concerts by the Philharmonic Orchestra, which refused to play music by Nazi sympathiser Richard Wagner.
