  Beautiful and simple. I think you would spend around 15 mins at this location.

  Nice piece of history but lacking information. 2.80€ per person and you really don't see much. Slightly disappointed.

  I was shocked to see that there was an anti-semitic art exhibit in an external courtyard of the church, with a full size billboard inside describing the exhibit. This is abhorrent to Jews--including Reform or Progressive Jews. According to my memory, the art exhibit attempts to bring together Catholic and Jewish in some effort at "peacemaking". Per the woman sitting at the exhibit, the artist is Jewish by identity , but raised Catholic. The symbol of the dove is used for Jesus and he tries to say that this can bring Jews together as it is a representation for Jews of peace. By conjoining the two in one symbol, he is saying that the two can be brought together in one--in Jesus. That is not what Judaism is about or what Jews believe in. This exhibit is an attempt to proselytize to Jews and possibly to others--but without any understanding of Judaism. Another example of a homogeneous culture "not getting" the others that are in their midst. Traveling to Andalucia--which we loved, I was well aware that we would be visiting Jewish sites in a country where there aren't Jews (or very few). At least have some understanding of the past and how it affects the present! When I expressed to the the women who worked there how this exhibit affected me, they first told me that the exhibit wasn't in the church/synagogue. But it was-- as there is a full mural/panel with art from the exhibit and the message attached to it. They seemed to be at a loss as to why I would find this disturbing. Same with the woman who sat at the exhibit with a Jewish star necklace on. Another reason I am glad I live in a country with separation of church and state.

  Living memorial to the 1492 deportation. A glorious historical community that vanished at once. Sad naked synagauge that not practicing as one anymore...

  Beautiful whitewashed interior. Amazing craftsmanship displayed in the arches and internal decoration. A must.
