Royal Vineyard Synagogue Prague - Vinohradská synagoga Praha

The Jewish Temple Königliche Weinberge stood in Sázavská in Prague-Vinohrady from 1896 to 1951. The building was hit by bombs during an accidental Allied air raid on Prague on February 14, 1945. American bombers mistook Prague for Dresden. However, the extent of the damage to the synagogue was largely due to the German occupying forces, who prevented the fire from being extinguished.

Although the damage to the synagogue building was not so blatant that it was no longer worth repairing and using, in 1951 the communist regime of the ČSSR decided to demolish this valuable building under the protest of the Jewish community. Ten years later, an elementary school was built on the site.
