Prague's Poignant Jewish Quarter

Prague's Jewish Quarter is unique among European capitals. From the moving Old Jewish Cemetery to the second-oldest standing synagogue in Europe, the Jewish Quarter is not to be missed.

My Jewish Quarter tour will take you through the Quarter's winding lanes and Prague's Jewish history, including the birthplace of Franz Kafka, one of the world's most influential writers and a member of Prague's Jewish community.

On my Jewish Quarter tour you'll see:
