JEWISH MONUMENTS IN SÁTORALJAÚJHELY
The Orthodox Boy’s School building
15 Sziget Street

“On the first day of the school year 1907–1908, a modern elementary school was given to the Orthodox Jewish Religious community that is without equal in the entire county.”

A Zemplén reporter wrote the following about the ceremonious opening on September 4, 1907: “The elementary school, run by the Orthodox Jewish Religious community of Sátoraljaújhely, is attended by 200 children, most of whom are in need of the best possible guidance, both linguistically and emotionally, in terms of Hungarian national education, in accordance with the requirements of the law.”

The pupils were provided education in the school until 1943, when the ghetto was established in the city. After that, as part of the ghetto, the building operated as a Jewish hospital until April 25, 1944.
