   Pinkas Synagogue (Pinkasova Synagoga) and Old Jewish Cemetery

   One of the most moving places in Prague, the Pinkas Synagogue serves as a memorial to 77,297 Jewish men, women and children from Bohemia and Moravia murdered during the Holocaust, their names covering the walls throughout the building. Discover the remarkable story behind this memorial, from its creation in the 1950s to its closure during the Communist period and its painstaking restoration after the Velvet Revolution.

   Old Jewish Cemetery

   stablished in the early 15th century, the Old Jewish Cemetery is one of Europe's oldest surviving Jewish burial grounds and one of the most significant sites in Prague's Jewish Quarter. Because Jewish tradition forbids the disturbance of graves and space within the ghetto was limited, generations were buried in successive layers, creating the extraordinary landscape of leaning and crowded tombstones seen today. Discover the stories of rabbis, scholars, merchants and community leaders who shaped Jewish life in Prague, including Rabbi Judah Loew, traditionally associated with the legend of the Golem. More than a cemetery, this remarkable place offers a deeper understanding of Jewish beliefs, traditions and the continuity of a community that endured for centuries.

   Old New Synagogue

   Completed around 1270, the Old-New Synagogue is Europe's oldest active synagogue and has served Prague's Jewish community for more than 750 years.

Discover the history, symbolism and legends surrounding this extraordinary place, including its association with the famous Golem legend. Unlike many historic monuments, the Old-New Synagogue remains a living place of worship, demonstrating that Jewish life in Prague is not simply part of the past but continues to this day.

5. 5

   Spanish Synagogue

   Widely regarded as Prague's most spectacular synagogue, the Spanish Synagogue is renowned for its breathtaking Moorish Revival architecture and richly decorated interior. Although Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain after the Alhambra Decree of 1492 found refuge in Prague, the synagogue takes its name not from these immigrants but from its architectural style, inspired by medieval Moorish Spain. Built in 1868 on the site of Prague's oldest synagogue, it reflects a period of growing emancipation and confidence within Prague's Jewish community. Its outstanding exhibitions trace Jewish life from the Enlightenment through the 19th and 20th centuries, providing a fitting conclusion to the story of more than 1,000 years of Jewish life in Prague.
