Old Jewish Quarter


I believe these were torah shields and a wedding box for gifts for the bride.

This was a method of voting used.




This is a wall with the names of Jews in Prague and a few other towns that depict names of 80,000 Jews that were victims of the Holocaust from Bohemia and Moravia - Pinkas Synagogue

Beautiful detail in the ceiling.


 Please read about the following exhibit of children's artwork from Terezin.  Powerful story.

Children´s Drawings from TerezĂ­n 1942-1944- an incredibly moving exhibit.

The next series of images are from the Old Spanish Synagogue.
