Why take this tour?

Let's explore the mysterious Fifth Quarter of Prague! You’ll learn about the dramatic history of the Jewish community and hear touching stories about some of its most inspiring characters. Feel the breath of the past as you walk the cobblestone streets of the Jewish Quarter with your knowledgeable local guide. We'll visit the Old-New Synagogue, the world's oldest Jewish church still active today and the resting place of the legendary Golem. You can also pay tribute to the Jewish community in the Pinkas Synagogue, travel back in time with Langweil’s Model of the city, and admire thousands of precious exhibits from the Jewish culture in the Maisel Synagogue. Take a break to absorb all the information at a modern local café. 

Hungry? You could probably eat an ox after all the walking and the excitement of getting to know the picturesque Fifth Quarter of Prague. No problem, just let us know in advance and we can make a reservation in our favourite restaurant within the neighbourhood.
