Vác is a historic town on the Danube (Pest County, Hungary), north of Budapest, known for its baroque cathedral and ecclesiastical past. The Jewish community, present since the 18th century, was active in trade and crafts. In the spring of 1944, the Jews of Vác were gathered in a ghetto and then deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau as part of the mass deportations of Hungarian Jews.
