What you'll see
The most richly decorated synagogue in the quarter: every surface inside covered in gilded, Moorish-style patterns in red, green and gold, with an exhibition on Czech Jewish history.
A brief history
Built in 1868 for a Reform congregation, it takes its look from the Alhambra in Granada rather than from any Spanish community.
