- Jews have a long and fascinating history in Prague. From the synagogues, to the Golem, to the first ever use of the Star of David to represent the Jews. This was such an interesting video to research. Have you been to Prague's Jewish Quarter? What impressed you most?

Have you ever been to Prague's Jewish Quarter? What impressed you the most?
Photos of the old destroyed josefov hangin from a wall in Staronova syn[?] All of the magics long gone.
But amazing(!) vid on pesach madam. Thx for the reminding.
Well, there's not much left over from Prague's Jewish Quarter what the eye of a tourist could rest on. But underneath the street level, the foundations and cellars of the demolished buildings can still be found. And not only the foundations - in many cases even the whole basements of the buildings are preserved because recent street is located much higher than it used to be 100 years ago. So the old Jewish Quarter might have vanished from sight but it has not disappeared completely. It's still there, buried in the ground. That's what I call fascinating.

Dívám se, a se zaujetím malého dítěte poslouchám video Američanky, která nádherným způsobem popisuje část historie mé rodné Prahy. To je prostě kouzelné! Děkuji za Vaše videa ;) Mimochodem, to bude spíše nok než knedlík ;)
Susan Vitto No, já to znám v češtině jako macesové knedlíčky, ale nevím podle čeho se to posuzuje, nebo jaké všechny názvy existují
@@anetapayne9257 Rudý bolševický nok 😂
Děkuji za krásná slova! Jsi správná, myslím že, matzo je spíš mezi nok a knedlík.😚
Ahoj, knedlíčky a noky jsou malé a knedlíky velké, název závisí spíše na velikosti. Do polévky se dávají knedlíčky=malé knedlíky, nebo noky. Zdravím Dream of Prague do Prahy.
@@jarmilasejnohova4013 ano. Játrovým také říkáme knedlíčky a ne noky.
Úžasné video!❤️ Děkuji moc! Já mám na Josefově nejradši Staronovou synagogu. Když si člověk uvědomí, jak moc je ta synagoga stará, kolik přežila pogromů, válek, obléhání atd. a přesto vypadá pořád stejně už téměř 750 let, tak to je něco opravdu neuvěřitelného.
Your videos are so nice and heartwarming. There are more foreign youtubers based in CZ, but their content is usually very self-centred or quite shallow or it just follows the trends that will bring them views...such as eating czech candies :D , reaction videos to geography now episode about Czechia etc.
We as Czechs have this weird self obsession and we like to watch people from outside talk about us. I find it quite embarassing actually. Everytime I look into the comment section under any czech classical music composer such as Dvořák or Smetana there is always tons of comments like....so proud to be czech......I've never seen any "Im so proud to be Austrian" comments under Mozarts music videos. How weird :D.
But anyway I think your videos are different and you are trying to really understand how things work over here and sometimes I even learn some stuff I didn't know. Which is just great. So thanks. :)
I agree with the majority of what you're saying, however I must say that there is nothing embarrassing about being proud to be Czech. I wouldn't definitely compare Czech to Austria as we were always part of the Habsburg empire and meant almost nothing back then. That's why since Czechoslovakia became an independent state, people have been proud to actually obtain this status of independence.. And it's been like that ever since. But that is just my opinion...
Luban jirkal - you nailed it, couldn't put it any better....
@@monikaj2889 There is not much to be be proud of, independent or not, we almost invisible to the rest of the world. If you say I'm Czech, some people know Nedved, some do know Czech girls as a phrase from diverse porn sites and some react as "ohhh yeah, you mean Czechoslovakia?"
But mostly, they just don't know, they smile politely and say "where did you say you come from?" :D Truly embarrassing moments
Lot of people new Havel, but these times are gone now
@@sendittomik You can still be proud for yourself or your country. It doesn't matter if others know about the things you are proud for, it only matters if you know. It doesn't depend on validation by others, know your own worth.
@@MarvinCZ true, true, well seeings the things around, there is more reasons to be ashamed of, the proud
Zdravím DREAM of PRAGUE do mojí milované matičky měst, do Prahy. Děkuji Vám za Vaše úžasná videa ze kterých je cítit, jak milujete Prahu a jak úžasná a pozitivní osůbka jste. Osudy Židů v Evropě jsou jednou z nejsmutnějších částí evropské historie. Bohužel. :-(
Jinak, co se týká knedlíčků, knedlíků a noků : :-) Knedlíčky a noky jsou malé a knedlíky velké, název závisí spíše na velikosti. Do polévky se dávají knedlíčky=malé knedlíky, nebo noky. Těším se na další Dream of Prague's video. Jarmila.
Love this history and cooking combination!
Great compilation, great knowledge. My respect.
Super video! Je to poučné i pro mě jako pro Čecha :D Mám radost, když američan ocení naši kulturu a historii :)
I like how you mixed history and preparing the food. This was very informative, I really enjoyed it!

Krásné dny.
Great history lesson, thank you very much! Before the tourism madness hit Prague (that means before 1990), visiting the Jewish cemetery was a different experience. No roped out areas, you could freely wander throughout the cemetery.
I bet it was very moving. I wonder if the crazy tourist times will return? It would be nice to have something in between....
I think it was even more recently than that. At least I can't remember any roped-out areas from my school trip around 2000.
Taky jsem kdysi do 1990 chodila na židovský hřbitov volně jako studentka. Od té doby jsem tam nebyla. Ceny za vstup do památek jsou vpravdě jewish.
@@zdenkamytnikova8303 Milá Zdeňko, nechci odsuzovat zato, že někdy řekneme něco mimoděk, Věřím, že "Ceny za vstup do památek jsou vpravdě jewish" jsi myslela jako vtipnou poznámku bez zlého úmyslu. A věřím, že když se nad tím dodatečně zamyslíš, sama si uvědomíš jak vznikají stereotypy a posléze antisemitismus.
Doufám že mi rozumíš a k tomu se tě pokusím pobavit zkušeností ze stejné doby. Šli jsme na koncert do kostela sv. Mikuláše. Venku velká cedule "Vstupné 200Kč - Padesát korun" Čemu rozuměl cizinec a čemu Čech?"
Šli jsme s dcerou do Zlaté uličky. Chlap vybíral vstupné. Poznamenal jsem "Když tam chci nakoupit tak musím ještě platit vstupné?" "Ó, vy jste Češi? Tak to je zadarmo!"
Nejste sami, podobně byli okrádáni čeští turisté v Chorvatsku, po skončení občanské války, když odpadla turistika z Německa.

Excellent video as usual! I loved that you added in the touch of cooking to go along with the story like you did in the Easter video. You have a gift for historical story telling. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
My pleasure! It's not difficult to discover fascinating history about Czech culture🤓
What a great video. Thanks you very much. I'm digging this History/Cooking format :D
Glad to hear it!
Every day is a school day!
Another brilliant video. I moved to Prague 6 months ago and your videos have helped me understand more about this beautiful city and entertained & educated me every week.
Keep them coming!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching. 😊
Hi Jen, I like the way you shoot this video. I can learn the culture twice as much! More power to you and keep safe.
Thank you for your input, Jen. I didn't know half of the stuff..
I look forward to your blog each week. This history was fascinating and of course I am now starving. Just fantastic.
So glad! Thank you for watching!
@@DreamPrague My wife and I had tickets and were all set for visiting Prague, in May but alas now we will be visiting via you great podcast. Thanks again for doing it. Someday we will make it there., Jeff
Lots of love Jennifer!! I’m actually moving to Prague next year and I’m picking up some Czech off your channel. Děkuji moc!
Fantastic! I think you'll love it in Prague. 😜
Lovely, warm and educational ... in short: great as usual :) You've made me miss Prague, which I actually never did. Stay safe ...
I'm glad! Come back to visit Prague before too many tourists return😊
Another great video. Thank you for your kind words about my home country. You deserve more subscribers.
Thank you! 😃The more I discover, the more I love your home country😜
Nice editing ! I like the switching between cooking and history ... both are so good, that I am sorry it ends, but still happy the other part starts :D
Thank you so much 😊I didn't know if the cooking part would work well with the history. Gad you liked it!
@@DreamPrague It worked very well.
Yay! New video!
I like the awesome theme, the shooting script and the performance of this video!
astonished...great knowledge, thank you
My pleasure!
Awesome! A wonderful blend of history and food!
Quarantine is turning me into a real cook 😜
Thank you Jen this was a lovely informative and tasteful historical video. I’m Jewish but I didn’t know most of that information about Prague even though I’ve visited many times. Your recipe looks and I’m sure tastes excellent, it is an art to cook a variety of textures of matzoh balls. Some like them super fluffy others like them dense and heavy. You and your husband can come sometime to Indiana and we will cook you a nice Passover meal
Amazing video as always
Glad you enjoyed😊

Super video. Díky.
This is so relaxing :D
Very impressive interpretation. Thanks.👌👌👌
I love this video. Thx.
I love this video. Love how you mixed cooking with history! I've been to the Jewish Quarter twice, including the Pinkas Synagogue. The cemetery is a most solemn experience, both shocking and moving. I really liked how you wove the history of this important area of Prague in with a delicious and well loved part of Jewish culture. Bravo! Please make more gastronomic/historical videos of Prague!
Hmm...Janek Rubes, Prague's own Honest Guide, really dislikes trdelnik (though he himself just hosted a video where he made some at home). He says they are not part of Prague's traditional cuisine. I was talking with a native Slovak about them recently, who looked them up and said that a village woman in Slovakia began making them and selling them from her home. He called them Skalicky Trdelnik. This village is in the north western part of Slovakia, very close to Czech Republic. The recipe for it was Hungarian at first, but improved upon and claimed by bakers in Skalica.
It could be fun to make a video about the evolving history of this unique pastry. It sure brings on reactions from native Praguers like Janek (I love his videos and watch for them every weekend, as I do yours now too!). After seeing them all over Prague durimg a trip last summer, I finally tried one. It actually was pretty good, but any filling stuffed inside a cone with an open bottom just makes for a mess. I, like so many others, wound up throwing mine away.
It would be fun to watch you make trdelnik and maybe give tips for how to enjoy them without the mess (carry our own little bowls? order them plain?). just a suggestion...
Thank you for your comment! I too love watching Honest Guide's videos and I thought he did a great job with the homemade trdelnik! It would be an interesting video, thanks for the idea 😜
So far I've only had a plain trdelník (no filling, only sugar and cinnamon) and I think that's enough, putting in ice-cream just doesn't seem like a good idea for "street food" in general. I would never just throw food away just because it made a mess but I'll admit it would be annoying. I quite like them (even though they're probably not as "traditional" as they claim to be), my dad used to buy them for me whenever there was an event in our city where they sold them (which happened maybe twice a year at most). We also baked homemade ones multiple times with my aunts.
But I can understand people from Prague or other Czechs not liking them whether it's because of the taste, the claim of being "traditional", the prices, or because in some places they are everywhere all year round so there's nothing special about them anymore.
Trdelníknení ani slovenského původu. Pochází ze Sedmihradska v dnešním Rumunsku.
This is such an excellent combination of a travelogue and recipe instructions ! :-) Well done !
As great as it is that the key Jewish heritage in Josefov was preserved, it is a bit of a pity some of the original housing and other architecture were demolished already in the 19th century.
Fantastické video. Rád chodím do Prahy a mnoho z toho som nevedel.❤👍🏽
Such a great video!
You are so kind.
Thank you very much for this video showing respect and historical knowledge about Jewish culture. My husband and I spent last week in Prague walking around and exploring and we visited also the Josefov quarter. Everything was closed but next time we would like to take a commented tour. It has been 20 years since I last did it. We are Moravians btw.
Last year in Jerusalem we met a young Jewish man who was willing to talk to us (the Orthodox Jews often are not). He was from the Cohen group and he told us that Rabi Loew, the creator of Golem from Prague, was his direct ancestor.
Hello Josephine, thank you for your kind comment! Wow, a descendent of Rabbi Loew, how fantastic! I definitely recommend a guided tour. I've done two tours in the Jewish Quarter and I learned so much. Thanks for watching!
Thank you - very nice history review even for the few of us who know :) ! and by the way I love to cook, too. So thanks for the recepie as well ;). And in case you are interested in the Jewish history I can only recommend the Museum and Synagogue in Polná (about a hour drive from Prague).
Thanks for the recommendation! I just looked it up, and it looks quite nice! Will have to make a trip there....
@@DreamPrague my pleasure. They shall be open as of 8th June hopefully.
Actually, my high school bulding is located in Josefov (Dušní street), so for four years in the past it was kind of "my hood". I have to say, that I really enjoy your vids. Your enthusiasm about Prague and Czech culture is inspiring. It makes me think about beauties of this city more. Keep rolling ;)
Thanks FiFoj! What a great hood you had! It's a gorgeous part of the city.

I learned something new today. And the combination with cooking worked very well. Thank you.
Edit: I first went to the Jewish quarter with my class in high school. We had a lecture about Jewish culture and a guided tour. It was a new world for me, I think I was amazed by most of it. The atmosphere of the cemetery was probably the most powerful.
Pohodové video,jako vždy....❤️👍
Thanks, Ondrej😊
What a wonderfull historic food story and its easy to listen to, popcorntime
Výborné video :)
Good video! 👍 😺
Velmi zajímavé, jen mi vadilo prolínání vaření s výkladem... Jinak sleduji Vaše příspěvky a považuji je nejen za fundované, ale především za velmi srdečné - je vidět, že Prahu opravdu milujete.
Aww, @oldrichdibelka790 děkuji moc! Ráda slyším, že se Vám video líbí. ☺️
First of all - great video, thanks for it. I am quite interested in Jewish history, but still there were some info there I didn't know before. My favourite Jewish builidng in Prague is Pinkasova synagoga, but don't know why in fact. Maybe because it looks so casually from outside.
I am trying to visit Jewish places when I am travelling - and so far my favourite are Jewish quarted in Budapest, Synagoge in Florence and ofc Tugendhat villa in Brno
Lol 😂it looks like I am watching 2 videos in one 😊
Great video again 👍
I rarely break from my gluten free diet but that soup looks delish.
What up Smellovision? It's 2020 already!!!
I love Josefov and I tend to get lost there (and I enjoy it). Creative video, thank you! In soup (polévka) we call dumpling "knedlíček", therefore "knedlíčková polévka" or "polévka s knedlíčky". And in Czech cousine the most popular are "játrové knedlíčky" (liver) and "kvasnicové knedlíčky" (yeast).
I too love to get lost in Josefov. Tobik and I wander the streets there quite often. I'll look for the Kvasnicové knedlíčky when I get home, thanks!
Growing up I remember nokova polevka, which is similar, except the "noky" were made from cream of wheat instead of matzo meal (at least that's how my mother made them). Shape and texture were different too, but I always associated the two.
Děkuji za informace, které jsem jako Pražák ani netušila. Moc zajímavé 🇮🇱👍.
Last shot with your husband made me laugh😀 God´s love comes trough stomach!😂
The sad drawings done by little children in the synagogue. That brought me to tears. There seems to be no limit to the cruelty people cAn do to each other.
Wonderful content Jen, thank you. I can tell that you love history. Have you read about the assassination of Reinhard Heidrich in Prague? He was the Reichsprotector (governor) of Bohemia and Moravia (now Czechia) during the Nazi occupation in 1942. The Czechs dubbed him 'the butcher of Prague' for his brutality against civilians during those dark years. The story is so fascinating even Hollywood took notice. Please watch the movie Anthropoid (2016), if you haven't done so already. xx
You have to visit the Jewish quarter and cemetery in my hometown of Třebíč, it's in UNESCO and the atmosphere there is quite beautiful 🙂 and of course there are pubs there, really nice to sit in a beer garden and relax with some friends and a beer 🙂
Emeril would be proud of your culinary skills...however, the history is nice and definitely educational...good luck.
Wow, thank you!
Hi, Jennifer,
Sir_Mac here, as always!
I have to say, I have never been to Josefov in order to watch or study Jewish monuments...
But I have one quick tip for you - There is "Zemská porodnice U Apolináře" at "Apolinářská street" and it is oldest maternity house in Prague, and it is built in gothic-revival style and it serves from the year of 1875. I think it is the most british / american looking building and part of Prague, you can "get".
What a coincidence, I discovered this building the other day! It's exceptional, isn't it! I was searching for the location of the 1989 revolution student protests, which happened just around the block, down the stairs from there. 8 years in Prague and I've never been there! Thanks for the tip, Sir Mac, I did not know the function/purpose of that building.
I feel like you are my culture, history, Czech, and cooking teacher! Thanks for all the work you put into these so we can learn things. :)
Wow, thank you!
Hi Jen, love your channel and I keep my fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻. I searched the internet for exactly what Matzo is and I came to the conclusion that I make similar "knedlíky" or "noky". Only with the following differences. Instead of "Matzo mix" I use semolina and use butter instead of oil. I make them smaller and boil only for 15 min. 😉
So glad you looked it up! I would say it's slightly denser and moister than a Czech knedlik. So good though!
@@DreamPrague yh, it is but we like it slightly raw and tough so I boil it for shorter time.
Thanks. I would like to make the dish, but Matzo mix means very little to me. Semolina/butter sound ok. I will Google it and see what jumps back.
miluju tvoje videa a zjištuju že viš o česke republice vic než ja rodily čech za co se opravdu stydim!.-)
I used to have a rehearsal place with my band in a church tower located basically across the street from Josefov. It is truly a magical part of the city. All those summer nights, with all the scented bushes and trees growing there in shadows of silent towering medieval buildings standing on ancient ground that witnessed our entire history, all of that while we were completely and utterly drunk- those were the days. :--)
Wow, that does sound magical!

V Praze se dochovalo několik židovských hřbitovů: na Smíchově,
malý zbytek na Žižkově (větší část tohoto hřbitova byla kolem roku 1960 zasypána a na jeho místě vznikl park Mahlerovy sady), kde byla později postavená Žižkovská věž.
Krátce po r. 1989 se Česká pojišťovna pokoušela rekonstruovat svoje pražské sídlo na rohu Spálené a Purkyňovy, ale tato budova stála v místě bývalého židovského hřbitova, a akční rabíni z Izraele vlastními těly zamezili jeho likvidaci a místo podzemních garáží byla nad bývalým hřbitovem postavená betonová kupole - aby mrtví nebyli rušeni.
Největší a dosud fungující Nový židovský hřbitov na Olšanech v Praze je na rohu Želivského a Izraelské, kde je např. i hrob Franze Kafky, na povinnou pokrývku hlavy důrazně upozorňuje už vrátný u vchodu. 🤠

I have to admit that I become addicted to your videos :).
Just a little info for fellow foreigners - the statue of Joseph II (time 08:59) is really located in Josefov, but not in Prague quarter, but in the city of Josefov, about 100 km east of Prague.
(check this www.google.com/maps/@50.337782,15.9259915,3a,49.2y,109.49h,90.56t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s_B5VoZGmEhopgVALb_jRqQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)
Same Joseph II, but different Josefov and different story.
I think you're a morphing to real czech girl. Statue in another city, black humor with Hi Lidice, Good Bye Lidice - absolutely hillarious. Jokes like that can't be just coincidence
Já tu legendu o golemovi znám jinak. Podle verze kterou znám já, byl golem stvořen na práci jako stavění budov. Jednoho dne se rabínovi vymknul kontrole a zaútočil. Pražáci ho proto svrhli do Vltavy.
Díky za další díl, jen se přimlouvám aby když mluvíte anglicky byli české texty. Případně mluvte česky a pište anglicky. Pro nás co nevládneme tak dobře angličtinou, by to bylo vše srozumitelnější díky moc. :-)

Amazing, American teach me something about history of my country. Who would think that?
And for the legend of Golum, I recomand czech movie The Emperor's Baker - The Baker's Emperor, starring amaizing czech actor Jan Werich if you havn´t senn yet.
I haven't seen it but I will look for it, thanks for the recommendation!
@@DreamPrague I agree with that recommendation. It is a wonderful comedy set in Prague under Rudolf II. It isn't really a historical movie and you won't learn the true legend of the Golem but it is a great story.

When my German colleagues asked me who are the most famous Czechs in the history, and we had a discussion, it was Kafka and Porsche for them. The interesting fact is, not many czechs consider them to be czech. Not sure how they felt themselves.
Kafka and Porsche considered themselves as Germans. After all, Liberec - Vratislavice was strongly German city. And Kafka wrote in German.
Interesting, I know he wrote in German...I read somewhere that the Czechs considered the Jews to be German, not Czech, but then towards the end of the 19ths century, more Jews spoke Czech and identified as Czech. It's all fascinating.

There is also Jewish grave yard, where is buried Yakob ben Bashevi. First ever Jew promoted to nobility in 17th century. But many local Jews got Christianized or married Christians, especially in 19th century. And those who remained were killed by Nazis in Concentration camps.

I believe you to be wrong. Kafka certainly knew he was of Jewish heritage. Other than that, he was mostly insecure about himself.
Hello Dear. If you are interested about Jewish heritage we keep in the Czech, try to travel into city of Pilsen and visit that synagogue. Is largest preserved in central Europe. See link en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Synagogue_%28Plze%C5%88%29?wprov=sfla1
I am learning to cook. I want to learn how to cook authentic Jewish chicken soup. I believe people living in the older generations ate better and more healthy.
Jsem Pražák, ale to, že Josefov se jmenuje po císaři Josefovi mě nikdy nenapadlo. Stejně tak, že Josefov byl přebudován ve stylu Paříže té doby. Ano dává to smysl, ale nikdy mě to nenapadlo. Zase jsem se dozvěděl něco nového. :)
Super! Já taky nikdy nenapadlo! Tam je socha Josefa II, ale spojení jsem nikdy neprovedla!
A tom to celý je.Neznáme souvislosti,které v té době byly zcela zřejmé.
@@martinoliva6490 Myslel jsem například že Josefov by pojmenovaný po Josefovi. (Otci Ježíše.. toho pozemského konkrétně :D )
Málo z nás to vědělo.Historické souvislosti se nám ztrácí.Ještě,že máme naší Dream Prague,aby nám to vysvětlila.
so interesting...The yiddish word for matzoh balls is so close to the czech word for dumpling (must be a slavik influence word in yiddish)...In yiddish its called Kneidlach (matzoh balls). Dumplings in yiddish are kreplach
Franz Kafka was Bohemian Jew speaking German🙏😀
