About

The Pinkas Synagogue is the second‑oldest preserved synagogue in Prague, a late‑Gothic landmark founded in 1535 and later transformed into a solemn memorial to the nearly 80,000 Jewish victims of the Holocaust from the Czech lands. Visitors experience a deeply moving exhibition of names engraved on the walls, the poignant Children’s Drawings from the Terezín Ghetto, and a reflective memorial space that quietly honors those who perished. The site’s architecture and the art surrounding the Holocaust narrative create an unforgettable journey through history and remembrance.
