Amazing (fake) organ facade in Art Nouveau style

PostThu Mar 14, 2019 2:41 pm

Where: the recently completely renovated/restored Synagogue in Subotica, Serbia, where I was yesterday on a one-day tour, to this otherwise truly beautiful city with many truly beautiful buildings, several of them in Art Nouveau style. This northern city is only about 14km (ca. 9 miles) from the Hungarian border.

Note: There is a real organ behind the fake wooden pipes façade that is also awaiting restoration, as this place is planned to be also a venue for concerts and other cultural events.

Nobody seemed to know who the builder was (Angster?).

I took these pictures:

This is certainly one of the more interesting facades I’ve seen in a while. Thanks for sharing!
