The Jewish Museum in Prague, located in the Czech Republic, is one of the oldest and most comprehensive Jewish museums in the world. Founded in 1906, it houses an extensive collection of artifacts, manuscripts, and historical documents that chronicle the history, traditions, and culture of the Jewish community in Bohemia and Moravia. The museum encompasses several historical sites within Prague's Jewish Quarter, including the Spanish Synagogue, the Pinkas Synagogue, and the Old Jewish Cemetery. Each venue offers unique exhibits that provide insights into Jewish religious practices, daily life, and the impact of the Holocaust on the local Jewish population.
