We visited the Jewish Cemetery independent of a guide as part of our self-guided tour of the Jewish Quarter in Prague. While we preferred the freedom of not having a guide, we were a little sad we didn't have one, as we wanted to learn more during our visit to the cemetery. The Cemetery is beautiful and moving, and a must-see site. However, there is no brochure or signs or anything to help give history of context as you are moving through. So either bring a guide or bring a guidebook, if that matters to you. That being said - a very worthy and beautiful place to visit. So quiet and serene (except the occasional less-than-respectful tour group). Note: entrance is included as part of the "Jewish Museum" ticket - you cannot pay to enter just this site. It is 500 czk for entrance to all the sites.

A small Jewish cemetery.. Few synagogues.. If u haven't seen any synagogue or cemetery.. U can go once.. But dont expect much.. Again the entree fee is too much for that.. Again they have different other fee to visit other areas around..

Well preserved cemetery with hundreds of tombstones surrounded by relatively modern buildings. You get to go around the Graves and if you familiar with the language you will be able to read some of the words written on the Graves. Although this is not the cheapest site seeing in Prague, this consider to be one of the "must see" when you visit Prague, and especially if you're in the Old Town.

Beautiful, park like cemetery with old graves, beautiful statues, mausoleums right in the middle of the city. You won't even notice that a busy city life is going on right outside the walls of the cemetery. The cemetery is easy to reach by subway (red line), bus and tram. All of these stop at the flora shopping center and this is only a 2 minute walk away.

Definitely without a doubt our favorite place in Prague, looks a bit unreal even , it is so creepy special and beautiful. When we were here there was little bit of fog just like in some kind of a horror movie. We could have spent here a lot of hours looking and photographing but we bought the combined ticket for all the Jewish places so we had to carry on. It is not allowed to walk near the graves and tombstones just along the path that goes around and a bit inside.

(Translated by Google) The Old Jewish Cemetery in Prague, Stary Zidovsky Hrbitov, is the oldest Jewish cemetery in Europe. It was founded under the reign of King Otakar II of Bohemia and its first tomb, that of Avigdor Kara, dates from the early 15th century, specifically 1439. Until the 18th century, for more than 300 years, Jews could not be buried in any other place than this cemetery, and this forced the almost 100,000 people who rest there twelve levels deep to be buried. Let us remember that Jews are buried without a coffin, in direct contact with the earth and this allowed the accumulation of many bodies in so little space (Original) El Viejo Cementerio judío de Praga, Stary Zidovsky Hrbitov, es el cementerio judío más antiguo de Europa. Se fundó bajo el reinado del rey Otakar II de Bohemia y su primera tumba, la de Avigdor Kara, data de los primeros años del siglo XV, en concreto de 1439. Hasta el siglo XVIII, durante más de 300 años, los judíos no podían ser enterrados en otro lugar que no fuera este cementerio, y esto obligó a sepultar a las casi 100 mil personas que allí descansan en doce niveles de profundidad. Recordemos que los judíos se entierran sin ataúd, en contacto directo con la tierra y esto permitió la acumulación de muchos cuerpos en tan poco espacio

It is an incredible place where you can feel history. Historically, as the cemetery was in the ghetto it could not expand horizontally so it expanded in height with hundreds of ancient gravestones one next to another.

Solemn and a very interesting place. Make sure to get an audio guide at the entrance of Ghetto, it will help you to get a better understanding of Jew's view on tombstones, life and death. All in all, it is a must-see.

Legendary Jewish cemetery. The gravestones are crooked because the graves are traditionally not permanent, i.e. they are centuries old. Among other things, the famous Rabbi Löw, theologian, mystic, philosopher and famous for the story of the golem, which he is said to have brought to life but also turned back into clay, lies here. Next to the cemetery: synagogues, museum and good locomotives in the former Jewish quarter.

Beautiful yet sad Jewish cemetery near the old town. Has a hundreds of burial stones in the grounds and also 80,000 names of Jews killed during WWII. We did a self guided tour as unforntunately we were on a tight timeline due to leaving Prague the same day but we would recommend maybe a guided tour option at the cemetery to find out more of the history if possible.

Very impressive to visit the museum, synagogue and cemetery. You can buy a combination card to see all of this. You become silent.

Make sure to carefully look at all the various tombstones. There are so many different interesting designs that span about 350 years. The whole place is filled with a very somber atmosphere.

Definitely worth a visit while in Prague. While a bit overpriced, still a must-see at least once in your life. Lots of thought provoking history in this area.

(Translated by Google) Curious though too expensive for what it is (Original) Curioso aunque demasiado caro para lo que es

Very interesting place, must see. Buy a combined ticket from the information center nearby, don't waste time standing in line.. much faster and more reasonably priced

A holy and wonderful place... It is recommended to stop by the graves of the righteous and ask God. Maharal Prag is buried near the end of the cemetery... it's a shame the price is so high

Very interesting visit, essential in Prague. Be well documented before the visit to be able to identify the symbols on the tombstones. Don't forget to complement the visit with the ceremonial room that is at the exit.

Essential

It's a cemetery. No surprise here. However, I loved visiting the entire complex.

Well worth visiting. Various choices of ticket which give access to other related venues. The cemetery itself was the main attraction for me. It may only take 15 minutes to walk through but very moving to see the gravestones huddled together as a consequence of the limited space allowed by the authorities at that time meaning that the graveyard is about 10 bodies deep. The height of the graveyard is very evident from street level.

(Translated by Google) Site that impacts you about its history (Original) Sitio que te impacta sobre su historia

It is expensive

(Translated by Google) Must join many here, find it a shame that you cannot visit the cemetery separately !! A security guard gave me the tip to go around the facility once, there is a small window from which you can see the cemetery from the outside (see photo) That was enough for me, it is only very small ... but still an interesting story when you consider that a few centuries ago, due to lack of space, up to twelve graves were sometimes stacked on top of each other! (Original) Muss mich hier vielen anschliessen, finde es schade, dass man den Friedhof nicht separat besuchen kann!! Ein Wachmann hat mir den Tip gegeben, einmal um die Anlage herumzugehen, da befindet sich ein kleines Fenster, von dem man den Friedhof von aussen sehen kann (siehe Foto) Mir reichte das, er ist ja nur sehr klein..aber trotzdem eine interessante Geschichte, wenn man bedenkt, dass aus Platzmangel hier vor einigen Jahrhunderten teilweise bis zu zwölf Gräber übereinander geschichtet wurden!!

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately the Jewish quarter is no longer there, only the cemetery. In Meyrik's GOLEM, however, this is precisely described. The cemetery gives a little taste of it. To look once is not enough, no time is impossible. Lets go! (Original) Leider steht das jüdische Viertel nicht mehr, nur der Friedhof. In Meyriks GOLEM allerdings ist das genau beschrieben. Der Friedhof gibt einen kleinen Vorgeschmack davon. Einmal anschauen ist zu wenig, keinmal geht gar nicht. Nichts wie hin!

Wonderfully preserved. Try to get a guide, they can tell you the history and meanings behind much of the symbolism on the headstones.

A magical place. Can't be put in any other way. You feel like you are in a fantasy movie. The whole atmosphere is breathtaking. Never have humble monuments of death begotten so much beauty.

Interesting given that the Nazis did not allow Jews to be buried outside the neighborhood, they had to be buried on top of each other after burying the already occupied graves with earth.

Beautiful cemetery with old grave stones and surrounding buildings in a park setup. We had the pack that gives you access to it as well as several museum and synagogues of the Jewish quarter and we really enjoyed it!

(Translated by Google) Tickets are expensive, but you can get a glimpse of what happened at that time. If you want to buy same-day tickets, you have to line up quite a bit (Original) チケットは割高だが、当時の様子を窺い知ることができる。 当日券を購入する場合はかなり並ばないといけない

Very historical place... Impressive

Just visit the place. And read a bit of its history.

(Translated by Google) A very interesting place, a great experience to stand in front of the grave of Rabbi Löw. (Original) Ein sehr interessanter Ort, eine tolle Erfahrung vor dem Grab von Rabbi Löw zu stehen.

(Translated by Google) The cemetery is really very beautiful and quiet, it is a must see in Prague! On the other hand, the ticket is quite expensive because it necessarily includes the entrance to several other synagogues of no great interest. The only one we wanted to see was the Spanish Synagogue and it was closed when we visited ... (Original) Le cimetière est vraiment très beau et calme, c'est un incontournable de Prague ! Par contre le billet est assez cher car il comprend obligatoirement l'entrée pour plusieurs autres synagogues sans grand intérêt. La seule qu'on voulait voir était la synagogue espagnole et elle était fermé lors de notre visite...

(Translated by Google) Great, creepy. (Original) Fantastico, da brividi.

historic place really beautiful you should definitely visit it if you append to be in Prague.

An interesting experience, don’t miss it!

(Translated by Google) The Jewish cemetery during Corona time: unfortunately the synagogues could not be entered, but access to the cemetery was possible without waiting and without queuing and we were the only visitors for a while. (Original) Der jüdische Friedhof zu Corona-Zeit: es konnten leider die Synagogen nicht betreten werden, dafür war der Zugang zum Friedhof ohne Wartezeit und ohne Schlangestehen möglich und wir waren einige Zeit die einzigen Besucher.

You absolutely have to pass by the museum where the names of the 80 000 Jews killed during WWII in Czech Republic are written. This museum is very simple but gives you a slap in the face when you look at the names on the walls. The cemetery is very special because of the density of graves in a small place, but also because of the succession of the tombs which are placed everywhere.

(Translated by Google) It is shocking to see the place! (Original) Impacta ver el lugar!

Nice memory for all this people combined with the sinagoga close to the cemetery

(Translated by Google) We did not enter because of its price, but it looks very beautiful. (Original) Δεν μπήκαμε μέσα λόγο της τιμής του, αλλά φαντάζει πολύ όμορφο.

(Translated by Google) If you are interested in other cultures and customs, it is exciting to see. The ticket includes several synagogues, the museum and the cemetery for the oldest synagogue a surcharge has to be paid. (Original) Wenn man sich für andere Kulturen und Bräuche interessiert ist es spannend zu sehen. Im Ticket sind mehrere Synagogen, das Museum und der Friedhof enthalten für die älteste Synagoge ist ein Aufschlag zu bezahlen.

(Translated by Google) It is a place where you will learn about the history of the Jews in Germany !!! The atmosphere is dense and sad, but it is definitely worth to go (Original) Es un lugar donde aprenderás sobre la historia de los judios en Alemania!!! El ambiente es denso y triste, pero definitivamente vale la pena a ir

(Translated by Google) About nothing..... (Original) O ničem.....

(Translated by Google) A place out of this world, a place that must be seen, a place that you cannot imagine reading or hearing about. It is an amazing cemetery with an amazing history and, what for most people it might seem impossible, it is a multi-storey cemetery consisting of several layers of earth. That is, when there were no more places, they covered the soil and buried the dead again several times. I think seeing this place is just a must. (Original) Miejsce nie z tej ziemi,miejsce które koniecznie trzeba zobaczyć, miejsce ktorego nie mozna sobie wyobrazić czytając lub słuchając o nim. Jest to niesamowity cmentarz z niesamowitą historią i co dla większości ludzi wydawać by się mogło niemożliwe jest to cmetarz piętrowy skladajacy się z kilku warstw ziemi. Tzn jak zabrakło miejsc to nasypywali ziemi i znowu chowali zmarłych i tak kilkukrotnie. Myślę że zobaczenie tego miejsca to po prostu mus.

(Translated by Google) To visit imperatively, for its history and the atmosphere reigning there. (Original) A visiter impérativement, pour son histoire et l'atmosphère y régnant.

(Translated by Google) Wasn't worth the money. Since we had a small dog (3kg) with us in a closed dog cart, only one could enter. I then had to stay outside even though I had a ticket. The money was gone. And then I didn't feel like it anymore when my husband told me that it wasn't worth it. Way too expensive. The Jewish cemetery in Prague is meant (Original) War das Geld nicht wert. Da wir einen kleinen Hund (3kg) in einem geschlossenen Hundewagen dabei hatten konnte nur einer hinein. Ich musste dann draußen bleiben obwohl ich ein Ticket hatte. Das Geld war futsch. Und ich hatte dann auch keine Lust mehr als mir mein Mann berichtet hatte das es sich nicht lohnt. Viel zu teuer. Der jüdische Friedhof in Prag ist gemeint

(Translated by Google) Great place to visit ... So many graves from so many years, I hope this place is here forever! Great place to visit ... So many graves from so many years, I hope this place is here forever! (Original) Skvělé místo k návštěvě ... Tolik hrobů z tolika let, doufám, že toto místo je tu navždy! Great place to visit ...

(Translated by Google) You have to come and also see some synagogue all in the Jewish neighborhood. It is paid but with it you can see the rest of the other 5 more synagogues and ceremony hall (Original) Hay que venir y ver también alguna sinagoga todo en pleno barrio Judio. Es de pago pero con ello puedes ver el resto de las otras 5 sinagogas más y ceremony hall

(Translated by Google) The cemetery is located in the Jewish quarter, a bit suffocated between the buildings. Inside there are about 12,000 tombstones and most likely many more buried in this place. Active until 1787 it was the only place where the dead of Jewish faith could be buried. Inside are characters known as Rabbi Loew, Maisel, David Gams. The entrance ticket to the cemetery is included in the ticket to visit the Jewish museum Recommended to visit maybe early in the morning when there is not too much crowd of tourists. (Original) Il cimitero si trova all'interno del quartiere ebraico un po soffocato tra i palazzi . Al suo interno vi sono circa 12000 lapidi e molto probabilmente molti di più i sepolti in questo luogo . Attivo sino al 1787 era l' unico luogo dove potevano essere sepolti i defunti di fede ebraica . Si trovano al suo interno personaggi noti come Rabbi Loew , Maisel , David Gams . Il biglietto per l' ingresso al cimitero è incluso in quello per la visita del museo ebraico Consigliata la visita magari la mattina presto quando non vi è troppo folla di turisti .

Interesting and beautiful.

should be visited

(Translated by Google) It is a very impressive place with a very dense energy. Most of all it is important because here was the only place where the Jews of Prague could be buried for 300 years, which makes there are more than 100,000 bodies buried underground in that small space. If they can't find it open, they can go around it and find a steel door with a grid through which you can see all the stone tombstones and the terrain. (Original) Es un sitio muy impactante con una energía muy densa. Más que todo es importante porque aquí era el único lugar donde podían enterrar a los judios de Praga durante 300 años, lo que hace que haya más de 100000 cuerpos enterrado bajo tierra en ese pequeño espacio. Si no logran encontrarlo abierto, lo pueden rodear y encontrar una puerta de acero con una rejilla por la que se puede observar todas las lápidas en piedra y el terreno.
