Beyond the Horizon

The Jerusalem Synagogue, also known as the Jubilee Synagogue, is a magnificent structure in Prague that reflects the city's rich Jewish history. This impressive building, built in 1906, is the largest synagogue in Prague and a wonderful example of the mix of Moorish and Art Nouveau styles that was popular at the time.

A visit to the Jerusalem Synagogue is an unforgettable experience that gives you a glimpse into Jewish life and the history of Prague. It is said that the synagogue was called the "Jerusalem of the East" because of its colorful design and rich interior. The vibrant murals and ornate stained glass windows tell stories from Jewish tradition and make a visit to the synagogue a fascinating cultural experience.

The Jerusalem Synagogue is located near the main train station and can be easily reached on foot or by public transport. In the vicinity you will also find the Jewish quarter of Josefov, where you can visit other important Jewish sights such as the Old-New Synagogue or the Old Jewish Cemetery.

After the demolition of three old synagogues and renovation works in Josefov, the synagogue was built in the Moorish style from 1904-1906. It served in the time of the Second World War as a confiscated warehouse confiscated Jewish property.
