Welcome to the Jewish Museum in Prague!

The Jewish Museum in Prague is the third oldest of its kind in the world – not a single building, but a remarkable ensemble of historic synagogues, monuments, and exhibitions located in the former Jewish Quarter, Josefov, in Prague’s Old Town.

With the Prague Jewish Town Ticket, visitors gain access to the most iconic sites of Jewish history and culture, including:

->  Old-New Synagogue – the oldest active synagogue in Europe. 
->  Old Jewish Cemetery – one of the most evocative historic burial sites in the world
->  Spanish Synagogue – a stunning example of Moorish Revival architecture

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.

Open Syngogues Day this Sunday

April 16, 2024 - Only once every 120 years does Open Synagogues Day take place. And you can be there — this Sunday, April 19, 2026, already!

All sites on the museum circuit free of charge, a rich cultural program included: guided tours, singing, dancing, workshops for adults and children alike. And those who stay until the very end can enjoy dancing from 6:00 pm to the wonderful Marc Crofts’ Klezmer Ensemble. We look forward to seeing you!

The detailed program can be found HERE.

The year‑long celebrations are held under the auspices of the Capital City of Prague and its Mayor, Bohuslav Svoboda. We sincerely thank them for their support.

Three rare stolen books return to Prague — plus a major acquisition

In 2025, the Jewish Museum in Prague significantly enriched its library collection. Three printed volumes originally belonging to the Library of the Jewish Religious Community in Prague—stolen during the Second World War—returned to the city after decades. In addition, the museum acquired an exceptionally valuable Venetian edition of Sefer Tif’eret Yisra’el (1599) by the renowned Prague rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel (the Maharal).
