Jewish Prague

Relocated congregation

After the demolition of Prague's Jewish town and the original Baroque Taussig Synagogue, a traditionally pious congregation of this house of prayer, also known as Muskat-Taussig, operated in 3 Benediktská Street. Later, it merged with the congregation from the demolished Mosheles Prayer House, whose new location was also in Benediktska Street, then with the congregation from the former Kauders Prayer House, and still later all three traditional congregations merged and moved to a new prayer house in the new Jewish community building in Lodecka Street.

The house in the former Červená Street, which may have been the site of the Mosheles shtiebel, destroyed during the redevelopment of Prague's Jewish town. Archive of the Jewish Museum in Prague.
