I took an English walking tour which I highly recommend (if you speak English).
A tour of the Jewish quarter. It's about 890kc so not inexpensive. Arrive at 0900 and go straight to the cemetery area. Visit the outside areas later. Ticket valid 3 days. Because of security arriving later can mean joining a very very long queue. The tour itself is emotional. The Spanish synagogue is the artistic highlight. The Maisel Synagogue for history. The cemetery area for tears. Do visit the outside exhibition for harrowing historical photos.
Didn't visit the museum but the cafe serves great food. Loved the home made soups and pastries, hot chocolate and hot wine. Very friendly service. Well worth visiting.
A truly moving place that once again evokes deep reflection on humanity. The indoor exhibition space was surprisingly small, but the visit concludes outdoors, exiting through a thought-provoking cemetery that leaves a lasting impression.
The Jewish quarter in Prague is rich in culture, art, architecture and very beautiful buildings. This is one of the places I wouldn't miss on my next visit to Prague
