Activity itinerary

Prague
  • 1h
Your hotel (if located in central Prague) or a designated meeting point in the city centre. Your private guide will meet you and provide a brief introduction to Prague’s Jewish history. You will visit Old Jewish Cemetery and the Burial Ground, , founded in 1439, is one of the oldest and most significant Jewish cemeteries in Europe. This unique site features layers of gravestones due to the city’s limited space for burial grounds. Your guide will explain the cemetery’s historical importance, the Jewish burial traditions, and notable figures buried here, such as Rabbis Judah Loew (the Maharal), famous for his legend of creating the Golem of Prague.
Pinkas Synagogue, Jewish Museum in Prague
  • 1h
Visit Pinkas Synagogue and the Holocaust Memorial. Over 77,000 names of Czech Jews who perished in Nazi concentration camps are inscribed on the walls of the synagogue. Your guide will walk you through these powerful names, connecting the dots between personal stories and the dark history of WWII. Inside the synagogue, you’ll also find a museum dedicated to exploring the history of Jewish life in Bohemia before the Holocaust. From the medieval era to the communist period, this space highlights the social, cultural, and religious impact of the Jewish community. The Spanish Synagogue, located on Vezenska Street, is one of Prague’s most visually stunning synagogues. The synagogue’s Moorish Revival style is unlike any other in Prague and features breathtaking architecture, with golden mosaics, intricate tiles, and ornate decorations.
Jewish Town Hall (Zidovska radnice)
  • 1h
Your next stop is the Jewish Town Hall, an iconic building that once served as the administrative centre of the Prague Jewish community. Here, you’ll learn about the Jewish governance system, its legal autonomy, and how the community operated within the city. The Town Hall’s clock tower is also a historical feature, with a unique design that sets it apart from other structures in the area. Built in 1592, the Maisel Synagogue is one of the most historically rich synagogues in Prague. It now houses a part of the Jewish Museum. Inside, you’ll find exhibits on Jewish art, culture, and history, focusing on the Bohemian region’s Jewish heritage.
