The Jewish Quarter is located on the south side of the walled enclosure, in the area between Corpus Christi Square and Canonjías. The main axis is the old Calle Mayor, now called Judería Vieja.
The importance of this old medieval quarter can be deduced from the different buildings it contained, which we know existed thanks to documents preserved in the archives, as most of them were lost or transformed over time.
Over the centuries, it had five synagogues, only one of which has survived to the present day, having been transformed into the Church of Corpus Christi in the 15th century. Two ‘Talmud Torah’ or religious schools, a hospital, two butcher's shops, a bakery, baths and a Jewish cemetery.
Added to all this is an extensive hamlet in an excellent state of preservation, whose urban layout remains practically intact. Between 2005 and 2009, a comprehensive renovation of the Jewish Quarter was carried out.
Today, a visit to the Jewish Quarter of Segovia is an experience that leaves no one indifferent.
If you want to discover its history and legacy, you can sign up for a guided tour (only in Spanish) via this link or at the Jewish Quarter Educational Centre.
In addition, its charming streets offer a wide range of quality establishments and services, recognised with the RASGO seal of quality.
This seal, awarded by the Network of Jewish Quarters, guarantees excellence in restaurants, accommodation, signage, guides and cultural offerings.
