The Praha Municipality has decided to transfer the well-known statue of “Moses Writing the Ten Commandments,” which has for many years stood in the vestibule of the Municipal Library, to the small square opposite the Orthodox Old Synagogue.

The Jewish Community protested in vain against the transfer of the statue on religious grounds.
