Jewish Spain

Jewish Compass lists 17 synagogues, 15 kosher stores, 8 kosher restaurants, 8 kosher caterings and 7 information points in Spain.

Spain was, in the medieval period, the heart of one of the greatest Jewish civilisations in history — the world of Sepharad — until the expulsion of 1492. The legacy survives in the old Jewish quarters (juderías and calls) preserved in cities across the country.

Jewish life returned to Spain in the modern era, and today communities in Madrid, Barcelona, Marbella, and elsewhere maintain synagogues and kosher facilities.
