== History == Gábor Sztehlo (1909–1974) was a Lutheran pastor in Budapest who had saved hundreds of Jewish people from Nazi and Hungarian Fascist persecution during World War II. Following extensive damage and destruction of the properties used for sheltering the people under his protection during the siege of Budapest, he set up another home for children in March 1945 using an abandoned villa on Budakeszi Út, which was situated in the less bombed district of Buda. Here he provided shelter for Jewish children waiting for family members to claim them, but also for other underprivileged and abandoned children, orphans and children of 'class aliens' according to the new communist rulers.
