Prague Synagogues and Jewish Quarter Private Walking Tour
Overview
Franz Kafka attended services at the Old-New Synagogue in Prague. Built in Gothic style in the 13th century, the Old-New Synagogue is the oldest building in the Jewish Town and one of Europe’s oldest synagogues still in use. Come along our Prague Jewish Tours and learn all about the former Prague Jewish Ghetto called Josefov.
Most of the area is made up of the Jewish Museum that includes synagogues and a cemetery. 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. Did you know that Prague is the only European city that kept its Jewish heritage intact during WWII? Take this tour and find out why.
Our tour guides hold the Jewish Museum licence and will guide you though the Jewish Quarter and Museum. All our tours are private so it will be you setting the pace of this private walking tour.
