Jubilee Synagogue, Prague

Jubilee Synagogue, also known as the Jerusalem Synagogue due to its location on Jerusalem Street, was built in 1906. It was designed by Wilhelm Stiassny and named in honor of the Silver Jubilee of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria. The building features Moorish Revival style with Art Nouveau decoration, especially in the interior. The Mudéjar red-and-white coursing of the stone facade is particularly striking. Lately renovated, it still serves religious purposes. After the Czech Republic became independent from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the synagogue has been habitually referred to as the Jerusalem Street Synagogue.

Having served the public as a house of worship for almost a century, as of 1 April 2008 the Jubilee Synagogue has been opening its doors on a regular basis to tourists and aficionados of historic architecture.
