Museo Sefardí

The Sephardic Museum preserves and transmits the legacy of the Hispanic and Sephardic culture, as an essential part of the cultural heritage and the history of our country.

The collections compile the testimonies of Hispanic-Jewish material culture led from the arrival of the Jewish to Hispania to the so-called “Golden Age” in al-Andalus, and later in the Christian kingdoms.

Its emblematic headquarters, Samuel Ha-Leví’s Synagogue or El Tránsito Synagogue, raised in the mid-14th century in the middle of the Jewish quarter, is considered the most important Spanish-Jewish building in Spain. Its walls and wooden roof are witnesses of the cultural melting pot that Toledo was.
