Sopron - Új utca
The lower part of the Új utca was the Jewish Street in the Middle Ages and separated from the northern part by a wall. In 1526 when the Jews were driven out of Sopron the wall was removed and the Új utca - the "new road" was formed. There are two synagogues here which are now museums.

Restoration work at the beginning of the Fifties erased evidence of the 18th C Baroque additions with the exposure of the Gothic windows and Renaissance arcades.
