Is it possible to pay a lesser amount to visit a single synagogue?

All the synagogues are managed by a single Jewish organization and from their website it’s quite clear you only have 3 options:

  1. Maisel Synagogue / Pinkas Synagogue / Old Jewish Cemetery / Klausen Synagogue / Ceremonial Hall / Spanish Synagogue / Old-New Synagogue – for 500 CZK.

  2. Maisel Synagogue / Pinkas Synagogue / Old Jewish Cemetery / Klausen Synagogue / Ceremonial Hall / Spanish Synagogue (without the Old-New Synagogue) – 330 CZK

  3. Old-New Synagogue – 200 CZK

So the only synagogue where you can pay separately is the Old-New Synagogue and at 200 CZK it’s not much of a bargain. Another option is to purchase the Prague Card, which gives free access to all the synagogues + numerous museums and works as a public transport ticket.

Actually, shouldn’t there be a time when access is free?

There are occasional ceremonies at the synagogues, but as far as I can tell they’re only open to community members. Very few Jews live in Prague so they’re not “open house” like the churches might be.
