Review & FAQ:

The Synagogue was built in 1315 and was used for worship until the Jews were expelled from Spain in 1492. It is a small building indicating that it was either for the use of a wealthy family or a trade guild. The entrance hall is off a small courtyard. Stairs lead to the women's gallery while the men worshiped in the main hall on the ground floor. The walls are adorned with motifs, scriptures and decorative plaster work. It was later used as a hospital for patients with rabies before it became the chapel for the shoemakers' guild. It was declared a National Monument in 1855 and has subsequently been restored.
