Join us on a scenic private Jewish walking tour through the enchanting city of Segovia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Segovia is just a 30-minute high-speed train ride from Madrid, and it's more than worth a visit. Our expert guide in Sefardic Studies will pick you up right in front of the Roman Aqueduct of Segovia. Our Jewish walking tour in Segovia starts right here, a perfect starting point! Prepare to be awed not only by its impressive height but also by the astounding engineering brilliance of the aqueduct. Its remarkable functionality stands as a testament to ancient Roman ingenuity, carrying waters across Segovia for centuries.
Spain boasts various cities, like Toledo, where Jewish communities thrived until their 15th-century expulsion. Surprisingly, Segovia holds a lesser-known yet rich Jewish heritage. The Segovia Jewish Tour unravels this city's mysteries and Sephardic traditions, offering a unique exploration of its captivating history and cultural roots. We'll stroll through its ancient Jewish quarter, visit its former synagogue (Corpus Christy Convent, which was the main synagogue built by Muslim Masons), and explore the houses of former influential Jews.
Although this tour focuses on Segovia's Sephardic history, one cannot leave the city without admiring its cathedral and its ancient fortress, the Alcazar, closely tied to the history of the Catholic Monarchs, who initiated the persecution of Jews in Spain.
At the end of the guided tour, don't hesitate to ask the guide about the best restaurants in the city. She will give you the best recommendations based on your preferences.
Segovia is a small fairytale city that leaves no one indifferent!
