Situated on the site of the 12th-century Altschul, the oldest synagogue in the Prague ghetto, the Spanish Synagogue inherits a legacy of religious devotion and cultural prominence.

What sets the Spanish Synagogue apart is its breathtaking Moorish interior design, reminiscent of the iconic Alhambra.

Stepping into its hallowed halls, you’ll be transported to a world where the interplay of light and shadow creates a mesmerizing ambiance, for contemplation and reflection.
