Since today is Saturday, the Shabbat in the Jewish faith, my photograph is of the interior of the Jubilee Synagogue in Prague. It is also known as the Jerusalem Synagogue, because of its location on Jerusalem Street. It was built in 1906 and named in honor of the silver jubilee of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria. At the time, what is now the Czech Republic was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Franz Joseph I its ruler. (After the first world war, the first Czechoslovak Republic, a democratic parliamentary republic, was created and lasted until 1938.)
