Location Spotter: Hungary, 1920

zita kisgergely

Sometimes a location isn’t a place but a time. Here we have a look a hundred years into the past, when 1920 Hungary was a very different place from 2020 Hungary. This was back when it wasn’t Hungary, but The Kingdom of Hungary, with larger — but shrinking — borders, and a significant Yiddish speaking population. The excellent free photo archive Fortepan has made these and over 100,000 photos from Hungary’s past available on-line. This is just a small window, though it includes a look into old world Hungarian hospitals. The cars too were of course something else. Though Pre-War Hungary was quite a different world, it is still good to know they also liked convertibles.
