A private tour for your group only, real stops at the genuine Jewish Museum, Old-New Synagogue, and Old Jewish Cemetery. This is a private tour for your group only, exclusive to your party. Real stops include the genuine Jewish Museum, the Old-New Synagogue — the oldest functioning synagogue in Europe — and the Old Jewish Cemetery, with its real Rabbi Loew/Golem legend.
The Old-New Synagogue is the genuine centerpiece of this tour, and its real history is remarkable: completed around 1270, it's recognized as Europe's oldest active synagogue, in continuous religious use for more than 750 years with a single exception, the Nazi occupation between 1942 and 1945. Its Gothic interior has survived ghetto fires, pogroms, and the Second World War essentially intact, including an unusual five-ribbed vault in the main hall — five ribs instead of the standard four, a deliberate design choice to avoid forming the shape of a cross.
The wider Jewish Museum complex this tour visits has an unlikely origin: much of its collection was actually assembled by the Nazi administration itself during the occupation, which, in a grim irony, preserved thousands of real synagogue objects, Torah scrolls, and ceremonial items from communities being destroyed across Bohemia and Moravia. Today those same objects form the heart of the museum's honest, carefully presented collection.
In the Old Jewish Cemetery next door, the real grave of Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel — the 16th-century chief rabbi of Prague the Golem legend is popularly attached to — still draws visitors who leave small stones on its headstone, a real, still-practiced Jewish mourning custom, even though the golem story itself only became widely told in 19th-century literature, long after Loew's own lifetime.
