The Judería de Córdoba, the ancient Jewish Quarter of Córdoba', is the area of Córdoba where the Jews lived between the 10th and 15th centuries. It's the most beautiful part of the city.
Points of Interest:
> The Cordoba Synagogue which was build in 1315 by Isaac Moheb
> The statue of Maimonides in Tiberias Square
> Municipal Souk of Cordoba, a craft market located in a 15th century house.
> The House of Sephards, a museum dedicated to Sephardic culture and the synagogue.
> The Almodovar Gate which was part of the walls and was the limit of the Jewish quarter.
The Juderia of Córdoba is located in the center of the city northeast of the Mosque-Cathedral, in the area of the following streets: Deanes, Manríquez, Tomás Conde, Judíos, Almanzor and Romero.
Today, there are very few Jews or Muslims living in Córdoba but their influence remains in the architecture: the synagogue and the mosque and synagogue. Neither now functions religiously.
