Ceremonial Hall, Museum and civic building near Old Jewish Cemetery in Prague, Czech Republic

The Jewish Ceremonial Hall stands in a Neo-Romanesque architectural style, featuring two main floors dedicated to various religious and cultural functions.

The building, constructed between 1906 and 1908, replaced a former mortuary used by the Prague Burial Society and joined the Jewish Museum in 1926.

The first floor contained a room for ritual washing ceremonies, while the second floor provided meeting spaces for the local burial society members.

The facility remains closed for renovations until 2025, when it will present a new exhibition of silver artifacts from Czech, Moravian, and Silesian communities.

The hall maintains records and artifacts related to the Prague Burial Society, documenting centuries of Jewish funeral traditions and community practices.
