Lonely Planet review

The handsome Pinkas Synagogue was built in 1535 and used for worship until 1941. After WWII it was converted into a moving memorial, wall after wall inscribed with the names, birth dates, and dates of disappearance of the 77,297 Czech victims of the Nazis. It also has a collection of paintings and drawings by children held in the Terezín concentration camp during WWII.
