As a Jew, it pains me very much to see how the once successful jewish community was destroyed as a result of obscurantism. What amazes me even more is the fact that at first everything was taken from my ancestors, including life and honor, and now the same country (different goverment) continues to make money on it without any problem - Never again!

The Synagogue and the Sephardic Museum are highly recommended. There are no audioguides available, but it is easy to download the App and there are lots of information panels in Spanish and English. PDFs can be downloaded in other languages.
