Prague's Jewish Quarter: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

Overview

Let‘s set off on a self-guided audio walking tour through Prague’s fabled Jewish Quarter, one of the oldest centres of Jewish life in the world. I’ve spent half of my life in this lovely city and I’ve always been fascinated by its Jewish heritage. You'll take in some of its most important sites, including the Old Jewish Cemetery, its beautiful synagogues, the Old Town Square, the Town Hall Clock and Franz Kafka Square. We’ll also meet some of the illuminating figures from Prague’s Jewish history. Let me share some insight into the Jewish history of Prague, which spans centuries, architectural styles, personalities and, above all, stories. If you have a deeper interest in Prague’s Jewish sites and are planning on a visit to the Jewish Museum, which allows you to enter the Old Cemetery and the synagogues, then this is the best practical introduction to your visit. But please note that this tour does not include entrance fees to any of the sites along the way.
