The Jewish Ceremonial Hall (Obradni sin) can be found in the Jewish Quarter (Josefov). It was built in 1911-12 in a pseudo-Romanesque style under the management of architect J. Gerstl for the Jewish Burial Society (Hevrah Kaddishah). Originally used as a ceremonial hall and mortuary, it now forms part of The Jewish Museum of Prague, holding exhibitions relating to Jewish history, customs and traditions, emphasising the themes of illness and death. On the ground and upper floors of the Hall is housed the part section of the permanent exhibition, Jewish Customs and Traditions.
