In Prague, where I maintained an apartment for many years, please visit the Staronová ('Old-New', it's 13th century) synagogue, the ancient Jewish cemetery (graves of many famous people, notably R Yehuda Löw b. Betzalel) and the Jewish Museum. There are very many immaculately preserved Jewish sites in the Czech Republic, and more of a community than most people realize, given the very small numbers registered as belonging).
Berlin I have never visited.

Hello list members,
Are there any of you who reside in Berlin or Prague? I will be in both
cities May 31 to June 5. I have not been abroad in many years, and I
welcome any suggestions of good research I could do while in those cities -
or if any of you would like to meet up, I would welcome that. Please,
suggestions!
I am going with a friend's choir that performs only Leonard Cohen, if it is
of interest I can post the tour dates as I will be at the shows.
I wish I could visit Czernowitz but I do not have enough time nor do I know
anyone there or speak German or Ukrainian, so I am hoping there will be a
group meeting there at some point.
I have been told to visit:
-Jewish Museum in Berlin
-Topographie of Terror in Berlin
-Terezin camp outside Prague
-Jewish Museum in Prague
Thank you!
Iris
