Szeged, in the south of Hungary, was a large and important community. The burial society was founded in 1787 to bury the deceased. For many years, the cemetery was inside the city. In 1868, a new cemetery was inaugurated outside the city, and all the graves were transferred from the old cemetery to the new one. The chevrah kaddisha focused on other charitable activities as well, including establishing a hospital in Szeged in 1856.
