The Old-New Synagogue, though not part of the museum, is another sight not to be missed. You are certain to have a unique cultural experience while learning about the life and traditions of Jews who were confined to the former Prague Jewish ghetto for more than 600 years.

This Prague Jewish Quarter tour is the ideal way to find out more about one of Prague's most fascinating districts. You will uncover the history behind the shops, synagogues, and cemeteries saved during World War II thanks to Hitler's desire to establish a museum dedicated to an extinct race.
