From the outside, you would not suspect that the building is a synagogue, as it is more of a stately home. But it is the only surviving synagogue out of twelve in Mikulov, which served the second largest Jewish community in Bohemia. Experts consider the synagogue's interior to be documentary and excellently equipped.
