josefov.

the jewish cemetery. shark's teeth. this small plot was hardly suitable, where single grave sites are as many as 12 bodies deep. some 10,000 headstones, some 100,000+ bodies.

with such disparity it is natural to question why the district was maintained at all. then of course there was hitler, with his grand plans, who had the intention to preserve the area as a museum for a distinct race.

franz kafka and his dream. born here 1883.

the mosque-ish spanish synagogue. like so due to the necessary effort by the jewish to camouflage amongst muslims in effort to elude christian condemnation.

the foundations of most buildings remain several meters below street level because this area, specifically selected for the jewish, was once strictly swamp land. pretty ideal.

jewish town hall. two clocks, the bottom left of which is in hebrew.

the old new synagogue. the name derived from a german mistranslation of the hebrew "on condition" (stone was borrowed from jerusalem and is to be returned upon the return of messiah).
