Part of the Jewish Museum, the Ceremonial Hall of 1911-12 sits right next to the Jewish Quarter's Klausan Synagogue, also part of the museum. Originally used by a burial society, the Ceremonial Hall now contains exhibits about Jewish culture and traditions.

Jewish Quarter is also called Josefov and is a part of Prague's Old Town.
