The project was founded and implemented by the Federation of Jewish Communities in the Czech Republic.
It is a coordinated and methodologically managed network of regional cultural and educational centres of Jewish culture.
In the authentic environment of restored synagogues, visitors can learn about Jewish history, Judaism, literature, architecture, traditions and customs through permanent exhibitions, while contemporary artists are presented at short-term exhibitions. Thanks to the unique atmosphere and acoustics, concerts here become a unique experience.
This network is gradually expanding by other restored synagogues.
The main goals of the European Route of Jewish Heritage are to preserve, to promote and to keep alive Jewish heritage, to set up cultural routes, tourism and social development around these sites and to make Europeans aware of the cultural richness brought to Europe by the Jews.
The Cultural Routes programme was launched by the Council of Europe in 1987 with the Declaration of Santiago de Compostela.
Over 31 Cultural Routes in 2018, of the Council of Europe provide a wealth of leisure and educational activities for all citizens across Europe and beyond. They cover a range of different themes, from architecture and landscape to religious influences, from gastronomy and intangible heritage to the major figures of European art, music and literature.
Can you name ten plagues of Egypt? Do you know where the Jews were in slavery, how long they wandered in the desert and what happened during that time? You will find answers to all these questions and many more at the exhibition, which tells the story of the Passover Haggadah. The authors of the exhibition are Pavlína Šulcová and illustrator and artist David Kalika (Kakalík)
The exhibition of photographs by Štěpán Bartos depicts places where synagogues once stood. The author has carved the outlines of these destroyed "invisible" synagogues into the photographs.
Hieronymus Lorm, a native of Mikulov, the son of a Jewish merchant, made his mark not only as a deaf-blind writer, philosopher and journalist, but above all as the creator of the finger touch alphabet for the deaf-blind. In addition to commemorating this personality, the exhibition is dedicated to the topic of deafblindness in general.

he suffering of the Jews in the years 1938–1945, culminating in the tragedies in the extermination camps, is still overshadowed by the fact that the Czechoslovak Jews did not surrender to the fate of the persecuted community and, despite the increased terror, joined the resistance in Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia. Thousands of them became members of the Czechoslovak army and fought against Nazism on all fronts of the Second World War with arms in hand.
