Spanish by name, Prague by address. And quite the architectural show-off. 😏
🇪🇸 But why Spanish, when it has no direct connection to Spain?

The answer lies in its spectacular Moorish-inspired architecture, influenced by the famous Alhambra in Granada. Built in 1868 on the site of one of Prague's oldest Jewish houses of prayer, it's actually the youngest synagogue in the historic Jewish Quarter. And clearly, it had something to prove. 👀

But here’s the curious part: while historic European synagogues often kept a low profile on the outside, this one certainly didn’t get the memo. ✨
🏛️ Its striking façade is just the beginning though – step inside to discover dazzling golden ornaments, intricate patterns, and a magnificent dome.
So why all the extravagance? And what does it tell us about Prague's Jewish community in the 19th century?

🔎 Curious about the answers?
Join our Prague Old Town, New Town & Jewish Quarter Tour, where we stop at the Spanish Synagogue and uncover the stories hiding behind Prague's remarkable façades.

Because there's always more to this city than meets the eye. 😉

Prague has no shortage of beautiful buildings. But apparently, someone decided they needed a little extra drama. ✨

Signal Festival is transforming familiar landmarks into something rather spectacular – and today is your last chance to catch this year's edition!

Some installations are free to explore, so if you needed an excuse to wander around Prague after dark, here it is.

Just don't blame us if your usual evening walk suddenly feels a bit underwhelming. 👀

So, what's your ideal Prague autumn plan?

🍁 1 – Petřín Hill: Fresh air, golden leaves, and the illusion that you've escaped the city.
🍂 2 – Hidden Prague: Get lost in the city's quieter corners. Preferably on purpose, so you can call it exploring.
☕ 3 – Cozy café: Find a little café, order something warm, and embrace the very Czech art of not being in a hurry.
🏛️ 4 – Museum or a gallery: A little history, a little culture, and a perfectly respectable excuse to escape the October weather.

Meet kulajda 🍄🥣

Creamy, fragrant and unmistakably Czech, kulajda is a traditional soup particularly associated with South Bohemia, made with mushrooms, potatoes, cream and fresh dill, usually finished with an egg and a touch of vinegar. 🌿🥔

And that vinegar isn’t an afterthought. The characteristic sweet-and-sour balance is what gives kulajda its distinctive flavour and keeps all that cream from becoming too heavy. ✨

As with most traditional dishes, there is no single version everyone agrees on. Fresh or dried mushrooms, poached or boiled egg, more or less vinegar – every family seems to have its own idea of the correct kulajda. 😄 Which is generally how you know a dish has been around for a while.

Rich, fragrant and made for chilly days, kulajda is one of those Czech dishes worth looking for beyond the usual goulash and svíčková. 🍂🇨🇿

Spot it on a Prague menu this autumn? Give it a try. 🍂🥣

Give a Czech a free autumn morning and there’s a good chance they’ll disappear into the forest with a basket. 🍄🧺

Mushroom picking – houbaření – is a genuine Czech obsession. And right now, as the season slowly approaches its end, there are still plenty of people heading into the woods for one of the last good hauls of the year. 🌲

For many people, it’s a tradition learned from parents and grandparents: which mushrooms to pick, how to prepare them – and where to find them.

That last piece of information, however, tends to remain classified. 😄

So if you see people wandering through Czech forests with wicker baskets and staring intensely at the ground, they probably know exactly what they’re doing.

October is here! 🍂🍄

Prague is turning golden, and somewhere in a Czech forest, someone is guarding the location of their favourite mushroom spot.

As mushroom season enters its final stretch, we'll explore why mushroom picking is practically a Czech national sport – and, naturally, talk about Czech mushroom soup. 🥣

But October isn't just about forests and food.

On 28 October, Czechia commemorates the founding of Czechoslovakia in 1918. 🇨🇿 So we'll be exploring the First Republic and getting to know its first president, Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk (TGM).

Stay tuned – there's plenty more Prague to explore! 🍁

Quiet ruler, messy politics, difficult family dynamics, and a legacy that outlived everyone involved.

More than a thousand years later, he’s still getting the last word.

👑 𝐒𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐖𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐥𝐚s, 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝟐: 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐝𝐮𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝

Saint Wenceslas – Václav in Czech began as a 10th-century Bohemian duke.

Yesterday, we met Václav the duke.

Today, we meet Václav the legend.

Almost 1,100 years later, his name is still woven into Prague – and into Czech history itself. 🇨🇿

The interesting question is how a murdered duke became something so much bigger than the man himself.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 "𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐖𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐥𝐚𝐬 "

You’ve seen his statue. You’ve walked through his square. You may even know the Christmas carol. 🎶 But “Good King Wenceslas” was never actually a king. 👀
He was a 10th-century Bohemian duke whose story involved faith ✝️, politics ⚔️, family rivalry , and eventually, murder. 🗡️

Somehow, that murdered duke became Saint Wenceslas, one of the most enduring symbols of the Czech lands. 🇨🇿
