The Jewish Museum in Prague celebrates the 120th anniversary of its founding this year. To mark this significant milestone,
we invite you to Open Synagogues Day. This event presents the synagogues not only as historic monuments but as vibrant cultural
spaces.
In addition to live concerts, the program features a new exhibition, guided tours, or workshops on Jewish cuisine. For our younger visitors, we have prepared an interactive quest and theatrical performances. Admission to all venues is free throughout the day.
