Jewish History Museum

The main goal of the museum is to preserve and disseminate the history of Jewish communities in Catalonia, which throughout the Middle Ages formed part of and contributed decisively to the history and cultural and scientific development of the country. An effort has been made to illustrate the information provided in the museum as far as possible with examples from the history of the Jews in Girona. These examples (documentary, archaeological or iconographic) offer an overview of the Jewish way of life in mediaeval Catalonia.
