​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.

Prague, December 11 - Prague is a city best discovered step by step — or, at times, from the quiet surface of the Vltava River. Its squares, alleys, bridges, and riverbanks hold centuries of history, each layer brought to life by an expert guide. For visitors drawn to the past — to architecture, Jewish heritage, royal traditions, or the city’s hidden historical corners — these ten guided tours offer some of the most insightful ways to experience the Czech capital.

Prague, December 18 - Few writers are as closely tied to a city as Franz Kafka is to Prague. Its narrow passages, shifting light, and blend of ancient and modern worlds still echo with themes that shaped his work: uncertainty, observation, and quiet resistance. Walking through the Old Town today, it is easy to feel the atmosphere that shadowed the life of a writer whose imagination helped define the 20th century. The recent release of Franz (2025), Agnieszka Holland’s cinematic portrait now screening worldwide and featured at the San Sebastián International Film Festival, returns Kafka’s Prague to the cultural spotlight with new intensity.

Prague, December 5, 2025 - The anniversary edition of the journal Judaica Bohemiae, Volume LX (2025) is now available. For sixty years, Judaica Bohemiae has been dedicated to publishing original scholarly research on the history and culture of Jews in the Bohemian Lands and elsewhere in the former Habsburg Monarchy, making these studies accessible to both local and international readers, primarily in English.

New York, November 20, 2025 – The Bohemian National Hall hosted an annual lecture dedicated to the history and culture of Jews in the Czech and Slovak lands. The keynote speaker was Dr. Zbyněk Tarant, a Hebraist, historian, and ethnologist specializing in Holocaust memory, Czech-Israeli relations, and contemporary antisemitism.

November 26, 2025 - The Jewish Museum in Prague unveils the first gift for its upcoming 120th anniversary celebrations: a new visual identity and logo created by Klára Kvízová Graphics. The museum is gradually implementing this identity across all communication materials. The design emerged from an open competition organized in collaboration with Czechdesign, offering a modern, clear, and visually strong presentation that respects the historical context of the Jewish community in the Czech lands.

November 24th, 2025 - On Thursday, 20 November, the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews held the official opening of its temporary exhibition Moc słów (“The Power of Words”). The Jewish Museum in Prague contributed nearly 40 collection items on loan for this project.

October 30th, 2025 - In cooperation with the Embassy of Spain in the Czech Republic and the Instituto Cervantes, we are presenting the panel exhibition “The Golden Age of Jews in Al-Andalus.” The exhibition offers a glimpse into the everyday life and culture of one of the most significant Jewish communities of the Middle Ages. Visitors can view the exhibition free of charge during the museum’s opening hours (9:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.) until the end of this year.

With a single entrance ticket, you can explore the most important sites of the Jewish Museum in Prague — Maisel Synagogue, Pinkas Synagogue, Old-New Synagogue, Spanish Synagogue, and the world-famous Old Jewish Cemetery.
 

All sites are located in the heart of Josefov, just a few minutes’ walk from each other, allowing you to enjoy the area at your own pace.
 

Your ticket is valid for three consecutive days, so there’s no need to rush. Take your time to explore the exhibitions, reflect in the peaceful cemetery, and return later to see what you might have missed.
 

Visiting the Jewish Quarter is more than a museum experience — it’s a walk through centuries of memory and resilience.

We would like to thank all those who responded to the call for lecture proposals for the Bohemian National Hall Annual Lecture on the History and Culture of Jews in the Czech and Slovak Lands, which was issued by the Jewish Museum in Prague, in association with the Society for the History of Czechoslovak Jews and the Consulate General of the Czech Republic in New York.
 

In total, we received 13 proposals from scholars from four different countries, all of which cover a wide range of interesting topics. We appreciate the level of interest generated and believe that the lecture will help to expand awareness of the history and culture of Czech, Moravian, and Slovak Jews.
