Your Experience
The rich history of Prague’s Jewish Quarter is as moving as it is long. Settled as early as the 10th century, this site has been home to the biggest Jewish ghetto in European history. With admission to all of the most famous monuments, this walking tour gives visitors a unique insight into the lives, trials and traditions of the Jewish people in Prague.The Jewish Ghetto came into being when the city ordered its Jewish citizens to move to a segregated part of the city in the 10th century. Over time the neighborhood continued to grow - and live with further restrictions. These circumstances have contributed to a unique and fascinating way of life, which are explored on this walking tour.Your tour starts outside the Rudolfinium on Jan Palach Square. Among the highlights is the Old Jewish Cemetery - one of the oldest and largest in the world. You'll also learn about the six synagogues that co-exist in the quarter. Each one holds a different meaning for the community. The Pinkas Synagogue houses the longest epitaph in the world, listing 80,000 Jewish victims of Nazi concentration camps. In contrast to this silent memorial, the Spanish Synagogue features stunning stained glass windows and oriental details, all basking in a golden glow.Providing insights and stories about the customs, successes and failures of the Jewish people in Prague, your expert guide will make this trip to Prague's Jewish Ghetto an experience to remember. : put on your walking boots and take an umbrella just in case the weather turns foul.
