Overview

Explore the legacy left by the Jewish community in the city and know how they passed here, always with the national context in mind. When did the Jews arrive? When did you leave and why, and how did you leave the country? Where did you live in Coimbra? What is its importance and legacy in the city and the country? What connects Coimbra/Portugal to World War II? These are some of the questions we will try to answer during the course. Get to know places in Coimbra linked to their Jewish past, some of them of great national and international importance (like the Inquisition Court, or the Judiciary). Discover the incredible legacy of the Jewish community in Coimbra.

In this tour, if the Reservation is made in advance, and depending on the availability of the place, it can be made to the historic Mikveh (the visit of the place, will be made in the company of a Guide of the Chamber).
