CZECH REPUBLIC – ’10 stars project’ linking historic synagogues

The  10 Stars project in the Czech Republic is being inaugurated this month. This is a nationwide project linking 10 synagogues/sites of Jewish heritage around the Czech Republic, financed by an approximately €11 million grant from the EU, with further funding from the Czech Culture Ministry.

Tomas Kraus, the executive director of the Federation of Jewish Communities, which owns the buildings, said: “The idea is that if you visit one of the sites, even by chance, you will realize that there are nine other parts of the exhibition, so you will want to visit them, too.”
