The Old Synagogue in Plzen is not easy to find. We had not read up on it in advance, so we must have walked past the entrance twice. A large green dot on the road indicates the sight, but if you are on the “wrong” side of the road, you will not see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
We had not expected that the synagogue was hidden in a backyard. After discovering the entrance, we entered a courtyard full of peace and harmony. Almost in awe, we finally stood in front of the house of worship and although we were obviously all alone here, we only whispered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Old Synagogue in Plzen is used by the Jewish community for religious services and can therefore be visited only at times when there are no services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
