BUECHLER, ALEXANDER
BUECHLER, ALEXANDER (1870–1944), Hungarian historian. From 1897 he served as rabbi at Keszthely and also lectured on Hungarian Jewish history at the Budapest university. In 1944 he was deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp, where he died. Buechler wrote A zsidók története Budapesten ("History of Budapest Jewry," 1901). On the basis of archival material he prepared material for a continuation of S. Kohn's A zsidók története Magyarországon ("History of the Jews in Hungary," 1884), which covered events to 1526; however, only a few monographs appeared (Magyar Zsidó Szemle, 10 (1893), 7–15; A. Wertheimer, et al., Emlékkönyv… Dr. Mahler Ede (1937), 406–14; A. Scheiber (ed.), Jubilee Volume… B. Heller (1941), 139–46). Buechler also published letters of such scholars as S.J. Rapoport\>\> in Shai la-Moreh (1895), which he edited. (Alexander Scheiber)
