The first mobility of the Erasmus+ Project “Artistic & Religious Culture & Heritage” - KA229 School Exchange Partnerships – 2019-1-EL01-KA229-062454 – took place in Budapest, Hungary from 15^th to 20^th October 2019, as planned in the project. The programme organized by Kozgazdasagi Politechnikum Alternativ Gimnazium – the host school, included the following activities: 

On the first day of our kick-off meeting of the ARCH Erasmus project in Budapest we first met at the school. After the short welcoming speech of the headmistress of Kozgazdasagi Politechnikum we had the chance to get to know each other a little. This group of enthusiastic teachers are going to be working together for 2 years to share their interest and curiosity in different religions and cultures with each other and with their students. This was an occasion to start becoming a team. 

Then we listened to an introduction of Jewish-Hungarian history presented by a History teacher, of the school. Next came the presentation of a young Hungarian architect on the general traits of Jewish architecture, the basic features of synagogues and some examples of synagogues in Hungary. Both presentations were streamed live through eTwinning
