This Haggadah was printed in Hungary immediately after the Nazi forces entered the country and conquered it during the Shoah. The Haggadah was printed for the last Passover holiday, immediately after the Nazis sent Hungary’s Jews to extermination camps, where over half a million Jews were murdered within a few weeks, especially the Gaon Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Ehrenreich, Av Beit Din of Amaluya who gave his endorsement to this book and was immediately deported after Shavuot of that year with members of his congregation to the Auschwitz extermination camp, after which they were murdered. On the last page, there are commemorations for the victims of the Shoah until the month of Adar, which confirms the fact that this last Haggadah was printed during the horror era in Eastern Europe.
