    A complex of three buildings from different periods, with the oldest Renaissance core dating to 1577, financed by Mordechai Maisel, the primate of the Jewish ghetto. The building survived multiple fires and reconstructions, acquiring its current late Baroque-Rococo appearance after the 1754 fire, with a final expansion added in 1908.

    The tower features two clock faces: one with standard Roman numerals and another with Hebrew numerals whose hands move counterclockwise (right to left, following Hebrew reading direction), intentionally echoing Prague's famous Old Town astronomical clock as an expression of Prague Jews' civic patriotism.

    The Jewish Town Hall in the Josefov district (the historic Jewish quarter) was built in the 18th century and has been rebuilt several times. It served as the administrative center of the Jewish community in Prague and played a vital role in the self-governance and organization of Jewish life.

    Today, it is an important part of the Jewish Museum in Prague and part of the cultural heritage of Josefov.
