The Holocaust Memorial Center (Hungarian: Holokauszt Emlékközpont) is a renovated synagogue that dates back to the 1920s and serves as a memorial and museum for and about Hungarian Jews that were killed in The Holocaust. It is located in Budapest, Hungary.[1]

The Holocaust Memorial Center is a former synagogue, the Pava Synagogue. It was renovated and opened as the memorial and museum in 2004. The museum was designed by architect István Mányi. Architecturally, the building is asymmetrical. A set of stairs lead visitors to the exhibitions, meant to "symbolize the distorted and twisted time of The Holocaust."[2] There are permanent and temporary exhibits, and a research center.[1]
