Sinagoga del Transito/Museo Sefardi (Synagogue del Transito/Sephardic Museum)

Built in 1466 the side rooms of this synagogue now house a museum dedicated to the Jews in Spain, though the main hall with its magnificent friezes and ceiling is what lingers longest in the mind. This and the surrounding Jewish Quarter are important remnants of Spanish Jews, who were tragically expelled from the country in later years.
