Is Old Jewish Cemetery worth it with kids?
DependsWith kids
With kids, it depends on the day.
One of the most affecting and singular sights in Europe — the toppled, overlapping stones rising in waves are unforgettable, and the silence is heavy. The catch: it's only enterable via the pricier Jewish Museum ticket, you follow a roped path past the stones (no wandering), and timed-entry queues bunch up. Brief but profound.
