About the venue: Spanish Synagogue

The Spanish Synagogue is the youngest synagogue of the former Prague Jewish Town, built in 1868 by architects Vojtěch Ignác Ullmann and Josef Niklas on the site of the oldest Prague house of prayer, the Old School. It takes its name from its Moorish Revival interior inspired by the Spanish Alhambra, featuring ornate stucco arabesques, gilding, and stained glass. Today it forms part of the Prague Jewish Town sightseeing circuit and hosts a permanent exhibition on the history of Jews in the Bohemian Lands (19th–20th centuries) as well as chamber music concerts.
