★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Important sight to see for Jewish history as well as medieval architecture, but little beyond this. I believe you can enter for religious purposes but no one is allowed in the attic due to some manner of legend involving artificial life.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really nice synagogue located in the centre of Prague! A bit pricey for entry but worth it if you are interested in religion!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Claimed to be the oldest Jewish Synagogue in Prague and Europe, but not much to remember it after the visit. Kind of disappointed.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Didnt give as much history as I was expecting. There were some good things but this is something I would choose to do on the last day in Prague. Also everything in this area is outrageously overpriced. Got ripped off at a jewelry store. Be careful.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is the oldest living Synagogue in whole of Europe! Yes, the name is indeed confusing! Well - it WAS the New Synagogue in 13th C CE when it was built. In course of time, as several other synagogues sprung up by 16th C CE, this was called Old - New Synagogue! Don't miss the Baroque money box to the right as soon as you enter! 2 different things I heard about its function are - its for tax collection and its for donations for the synagogue which is supposedly to be done discreetly not seen by anyone! I'm unsure which is or if both are true!!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Everything in this scared place of worship are old and so full of history from the altar down to the seats and books. It seem that the builders have cramped as many wooden furniture as possible into the place to accommodate maximum worshippers.
