Kétegyháza (in Hungarian pronounced as /ˈkeːtɛchaːzɒ/; Romanian; Moldavian; Moldovan: Chitighaz) is a large village in Békés County, in the Southern Great Plain region of south-east Hungary. It is one of the main centres of Hungary's Romanian minority.
Jews lived in the village in the 19th century and in 1944 many of them were murdered in the Holocaust of the Jews of Hungary.[5]
