History of the Jewish quarter of Girona

The Jewish quarter of Girona, also called Call Jueu, is one of the best preserved Jewish neighborhoods in the world, with an inherited Middle Age style. The first Jewish community was created during the 12th century and lived in the neighborhood until the summer of 1492, when a decree forced the Jews to sell their religious spaces. Thanks to the archaeological research, Jewish era sites are still found in the city.

Moreover, the Jewish History Museum is a visit not to be missed if you wish to learn more about the past and the history of Girona.
