Welcome to the Jewish Museum in Prague!

The Jewish Museum in Prague is the third oldest of its kind in the world – not a single building, but a remarkable ensemble of historic synagogues, monuments, and exhibitions located in the former Jewish Quarter, Josefov, in Prague’s Old Town.

With the Prague Jewish Town Ticket, visitors gain access to the most iconic sites of Jewish history and culture, including:

->  Old-New Synagogue – the oldest active synagogue in Europe 
->  Old Jewish Cemetery – one of the most evocative historic burial sites in the world
->  Spanish Synagogue – a stunning example of Moorish Revival architecture
->  Pinkas Synagogue – the second oldest preserved synagogue in Prague, housing a profoundly moving memorial to the Shoah
->  Maisel Synagogue – built by the mayor of the Jewish Town and one of the wealthiest inhabitants of Rudolfine Prague, Mordechai Maisel
->  Klausen Synagogue – the largest surviving synagogue of the former Prague Ghetto, constructed in the early Baroque style


Whether you’re a history enthusiast, architecture lover, or curious traveler, this immersive experience offers a profound connection to centuries of Jewish life, resilience, and tradition.

Burning Love: A remarkable exhibition in Klausen Synagogue

Prague, April 23, 2026 – From April 17 to September 6, 2026, photography and history enthusiasts are invited to visit Burning Love, a remarkable exhibition of photographs by Karel Cudlín, on view at the Klaus Synagogue. The exhibition accompanies the release of the eponymous book, which brings together the photographer’s visual reflections on Israel spanning three decades, from 1996 to 2026.
 
Through Cudlín’s distinctive documentary lens, the exhibition offers a rare journey across Israel – from the Golan Heights to the Sinai Peninsula – while revisiting key turning points in the history of this ethnically and culturally diverse Middle Eastern country. More information about the exhibition can be found HERE.
 
On May 12 at 7:00 p.m., the exhibition programme will be enriched by a public discussion with Karel Cudlín and journalist, writer, and winemaker Tsur Shezaf, who contributed his texts to the accompanying publication. Further details are available via this link.
