Jewish Palma de Mallorca
Experience this major part of Mallorquin history through the Jewish eyes. Our tour starts in the oldest Jewish quarter dating back to the Muslim era of Mallorca, the Call Menor, and continues through the narrow, twisting streets to the medieval Jewish quarter. The Call Major is home to remnants of synagogues with Jewish life preserved in street names like Calle Argentera, where the goldsmiths worked.
You can also visit the park where the old Jewish cemetery used to be and walk the streets where the descendants of Mallorcan Jewry live to this very day. The Museum of Jewish Memory (Museu de Memoria Jueva) has a permanent exhibition about the history of the Sephardic Jews in general and the Crypto-Jews of Mallorca in particular. Here you can also learn about today's Jewish community, re-established in 1971. Let us make your stay in Palma an unexpected experience. Come taste the flavor of the famous crespells, a Mallorcan Jewish pastry, and encounter dimensions of Mallorcan life you never before considered!
For clients, who can spend a whole day in
Mallorca, we offer a combination of this walking tour with an afternoon visit of
"Studio Weill", congenial designed by architect Daniel Libeskind. The private
museum, with a stunning view over the bay of Puerto Andratx, shows the work of
the American artist Barbara Weill.
