Article mystical Prague
I have a series of articles about mystical Prague, legends and tales from locals that are not mentioned on tours, for example one of them, as well as a large number of personal photos:
Mystical Prague is full of legends and stories that are passed down from generation to generation. Here are a few well-known local stories:
1. **The Wise Jew of Prague**: This is one of the most popular legends. It is said that there lived a wise Jew in Prague who created the Golem – a creature made of clay, to protect the Jewish community from persecution. The Golem was endowed with strength and the ability to follow commands, but became increasingly uncontrollable. Eventually, he was locked in the synagogue, where he still waits.
