Jewish museum

Five Synagogues in Prague (and One Cemetery)

Five synagogues and a cemetery (with a ceremonial hall) are what remains of Prague’s once-thriving Jewish neighborhood. Together, they now make up the Prague Jewish Museum.

Flat metal disks, piled haphazardly, covering the floor. Each has a simple face, most of them with a round O for a mouth as if screaming.

The Jewish Museum in Berlin

I was apprehensive about visiting the Jewish Museum in Berlin, but it turned out to be an excellent museum with the right mix of information and emotional effect.
