JEWISH MONUMENTS IN SÁTORALJAÚJHELY
The Adler House, memorial plaque
17 Dózsa György Street
The memorial plaque was placed on the wall of the home of the Adler family in the fall of 2020 to commemorate the family’s cottage sheep cheese factory.
József Adler’s Sheep Cottage Cheese Factory was established in Sátoraljaújhely in the 1880s. In 1910, his son Miklós built it into a modern cottage cheese factory named the Highlands Dairy Industry in 1910.
The factory produced so-called “Liptauer” cottage sheep cheese, curded cheese crumbs for pasta, and bitter curded cheese with a strong taste. Later, they introduced Zemplén Cottage Sheep Cheese, which was considered something of a delicacy.
According to legend, Adler never let anyone into his “secret workshop,” so the recipe for the famous cottage sheep cheese from Sátoraljaújhely remains a mystery to this day.
The factory distributed its products all over the country and abroad as well, and it had an office in Budapest on Kálvária Square.
