Main description

Nestled in the heart of the Jewish Quarter, the Spanish Synagogue welcomes you into a golden and arabesque setting inspired by Moorish-Andalusian art. This architectural treasure offers a magical space where heritage, culture, and spirituality meet. Beneath its radiant dome, each note resonates with depth and emotion thanks to its exceptional acoustics. Let yourself be transported for an evening through the ages, from baroque to contemporary, from sacred to popular.

The Hallelujah concert is more than a musical performance — it’s a celebration of emotion and eras. The evening begins with great lyrical and classical works, continues through vibrant melodies from musicals and traditional Jewish songs rich in history, and culminates in powerful modern anthems like Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah and the symphonic rock energy of Queen.

A masterful performance that bridges cultures and styles for a moment of pure emotion in one of Prague’s most iconic venues.
