Beautiful churches and synagogues full of history are also in the four corners of the city, among them the gothic cathedral of Saint Vitus, in Prague castle, and the cathedral of Our Lady of Tyn, one of the monuments that dominate the horizon and also one of most photographed in the city. In Josefov, the Jewish quarter, do not miss the chance to get to know the whole history of the Jews in Prague and explore synagogues such as Old-New – the oldest in Europe – and Pinkas, whose walls bear the names of 80,000 Jewish victims of holocaust.
