Experts' Choice Award Sinagoga del Transito
What the experts agree on
This 14th-century synagogue hides stunning Mudejar wall decoration behind a plain facade—one of Toledo's last surviving synagogues, with exhibits on Jewish history, artifacts, and a memorial garden.
“Exhibits provide an insight into the history of Jewish culture in Spain, and include archaeological finds, a memorial garden, costumes and ceremonial artefacts.”
