Money box

The money box of the Nér Tamid association from Nagykanizsa (Vienna, 1854). The maintenance of the Jewish institutions was the role of the community members. The rabbi, the teacher, the kosher butcher, the inspector of ritual institutions and of course the furniture of the synagogues were paid from the synagogue taxes. In the town of Nagykanizsa, a separate association, the Nér Támid covered the furniture and the maintenance of the synagogue. The donation was collected in a money box, decorated with the picture of the synagogue’s eternal flame.
