Discover the Jerusalem Synagogue, a Moorish and Art Nouveau jewel away from the main tourist trail. Admire the patterned facade, then enter the ornate hall and the exhibition on the upper balcony.
Full description
The Jerusalem Synagogue, also called the Jubilee Synagogue, was built in the early 20th century and blends Art Nouveau with Moorish design elements, giving it a bright, patterned facade unlike the older synagogues in the Jewish Quarter. Inside, visitors describe an ornate prayer hall and an upper-balcony exhibition on Jewish history in Prague and wider themes of human cruelty and humanity.
Rotating displays, such as a quilt exhibit, have also been on show. It is closed on Saturdays.

Beautiful art nouveau style synagogue, one of the crown jewels of Prague. There was a stunning patchwork quilt exhibit with synagogue windows theme and a photo exhibit of Jewish history in Prague and Bohemia region when I visited. Jerusalem Synagogue looks beautiful from the outside also. There's a small ticket fee…
