    The Jewish quarter was created in the 13th century.
    Around 1900, the old quarter was largely demolished and new residential buildings were built in the Art Nouveau style.
    All surviving religious buildings and cemeteries are part of the Jewish Museum.

      The former Jewish quarter is one of the most beautiful in Prague thanks to its outstanding Art Nouveau houses. Half a dozen synagogues shape the legacy of the Jewish population. Jews lived in miserably cramped conditions in the walled ghetto. Their situation only improved under the reign of Emperor Joseph II. Therefore this quarter bears the name Josefstadt (Josefov) in honor.

        One of the oldest and most impressive corners of Prague.
