Overview

This walking tour takes 4 hours. Entrance fee to the Jewish Museum is 32 EUR per person. For students 26 EUR per person. It is not included in the tour price. You can easily pay by credit card. Josefov in Prague is one of the most valuable Jewish sites in the world. One of the most visited museums in the whole world. The quiet and melancholy atmosphere of the Old Jewish Cemetery from 1439 A. D. leaves an incredelible impression. In the Pinkas synagogue, now a monument to victims of the Holocaust, the walls are hand-painted with the names of Czech and Moravian Jews who perished in the Second World War. Upstairs there is a breathtaking exposition of drawings made by children in Terezin. We are going to see all the synagogues, including an ortodox Old-New Synagogue. It is the oldest preserved synagogue in Europe from 1270 A. D. Oldest synagogue in the world outside of Izrael. Still serves as a house of prayers.

People had to be burried on top of each other because of lack of space. In 1787 this cemetery was abolished by Joseph II. Habsburg.

  • Spanish Synagogue, Jewish Museum in Prague

    Spanish Synagogue in Prague was built in 1868 to replace the oldest synagogue in Prague from the 12th century A.D. It is an oriental, moorish architectural style. Inside it reminds of Alhambra in Spain and that is why it is called Spanish. They like to present classical music concerts inside of this synagogue so it is also considered as a concert hall. From May 2019 Spanish synagogue will be closed for 2 years because off reconstruction.

    The Pinkas Synagogue is the second oldest surviving synagogue in Prague. Its origins are connected with the Horowitz family, a renowned Jewish family in Prague. Today, the synagogue is administered by the Jewish Museum in Prague and commemorates about 79,000 Czech Jewish victims of the Shoah.

    30 minutes

  • Maisel Synagogue

    The Maisel synagogue was erected in 1592 on the basis of a privilege granted by Emperor Rudolf II. Its founder was Mordecai Maisel, the Mayor of the Prague Jewish Town. Built by Judah Tzoref de Herz and Josef Wahl, it was originally a Renaissance temple with three naves, which was unusual for its day. The synagogue burnt down in the ghetto fire of 1689 and was rebuilt several times. It acquired its current Neo-Gothic form by Prof. A Grotte in 1893-1905.

The first floor once housed a room for the ritual washing of the dead; on the second floor was the burial society's club room.

Unforgettable Walking Tour of the Jewish Quarter

Published on Nov, 2024

My son and I went on a private half day walking tour of the Jewish Quarter led by Eva from Eva Prague Tours. She met us at our hotel and kindly suggested we take a tram to the starting point as I have mobility issues. We toured the entire Jewish Quarter at a relaxed pace over 3+ hours. During the tour, Eva gave us a detailed history of each synagogue, grave yard or building we visited. She had a wealth of knowledge and her English was exceptional. We were surprised by her knowledge of Yiddish, Hebrew and the culture which was most impressive. She was easy to listen to, fun, respectful and sensitive. We were fortunate to visit all but one of the synagogues which was unexpectedly closed. The grave of the Rabbi who was said to have created the ‘Golem’ and the Old New Synagogue were spiritual highlights. We had an unforgettable private tour with a highly professional tour guide which was well worth the extra cost. Ask for Eva, she is an excellent guide and will personalize your tour with humor, respect and sensitivity. As we were leaving the Jewish Quarter, Eva called out to a man who happened to be the owner of a kosher restaurant. They chatted together, clearly friends. Later that evening, I called in a take out order to the restaurant and told him we were with Eva that day. We had a delicious meal, which paid respect to both Czech and kosher cuisine.

Don’t miss this Outstanding Tour!
