According to the old doubtful fable, rests the sleeping Golem till today somewhere in the celar, or in the attick of the Prague synagogue or in the neighbourhoods of the Old Town. In the pacio of a deserted house in the Palacký street, (where originally Prague Ghetto was), I found a set in hole of the old gothic wall. Down in the dark I noticed strange shape, resembling vaguely a human figure. It could be miserable homeless, who fell in, while searching for a shelter, or it was this location where Rabi Loew once buried the golem. ( there could be as well more of the human automats around?).
