Guided tours through Jewish Quarters in Andalusia

Explore the ancient Jewish quarters with our guided itineraries through Andalusian Jewish quarters, a journey back in time through narrow streets that preserve the memory of one of the most influential communities in medieval Spanish history. Our tours of the Sephardic legacy in Andalusia allow you to discover the rich Jewish heritage of iconic cities, from the renowned Jewish quarter of Córdoba with its historic 14th‑century synagogue to the Santa Cruz neighborhood in Seville, which occupied the old Jewish quarter.

Guided visits to the Andalusian Jewish quarters reveal a heritage that is often invisible to the untrained eye, enabling you to identify Hebrew symbols and inscriptions on repurposed buildings, ancient synagogues transformed into churches after the expulsion, houses with typical Sephardic structures and urban layouts characteristic of the needs of these communities.

Our expert guides unravel the complex coexistence of the three cultures that defined medieval Andalusia, sharing fascinating stories about key figures such as Maimonides, Yehuda Halevi, and the Ibn Ezra family, while explaining traditions, festivities, and aspects of daily life that have left an indelible mark on Spanish culture—from gastronomy and language to fields such as astronomy, medicine, and philosophy.

For a more immersive experience, some routes offer participatory activities such as Hebrew calligraphy workshops, tastings of Sephardic pastries, or small concerts of Sephardic music in significant venues.
