The High Synagogue (Vysoká synagoga) stands on Červená ulice in Prague's Josefov quarter, Czech Republic, and was built in 1568 in the Renaissance style. It served as a synagogue until World War II, later became part of the Jewish Museum of Prague, and was restituted to the Jewish Community of Prague in the 1990s. It has been listed as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic since 1992 and is used daily for Orthodox services.
