Robert Guttmann Gallery (Jewish Museum)

As synagogues and prayer rooms began to be demolished by Prague's municipal offices at the end of the 19th century, the Czech-Jewish community applied their vigour to creating a Jewish Museum wherein ritual objects could be saved from destruction and kept for future generations. Thus, in 1906 Prague's Jewish Museum began with a modest collection. Today, it is celebrating its centenary with an exhibit here entitled Defying the Beast (until 1 Oct). The museum is closed on Jewish holidays too.

Admission 40/20Kč.
