Casa de Sefarad, Jewish heritage museum in Jewish Quarter, Córdoba, Spain
Casa de Sefarad occupies a 14th-century building with a central courtyard where round arches frame the space and floor tiles display symbols connected to Jewish traditions. The structure shows how medieval Jewish homes were built within the city's tight urban layout.
The building dates to the 14th century when a Jewish community lived and thrived in Córdoba. The structure marks a time before the expulsions of 1492 that ended centuries of Jewish life in the peninsula.
The rooms show how Sephardic families lived in Córdoba, from daily routines to celebrations and musical customs. The displays reveal a Jewish community that was woven into the city's fabric for many centuries.
The museum is located in the heart of the old quarter and welcomes visitors at a manageable pace without overwhelming crowds. You can move through the rooms at your own speed and spend time with the displays that interest you most.
The collection features 17th-century musical instruments that reveal the importance of music in Sephardic daily life and celebrations. These objects offer a direct look at personal moments of a community that history often overlooks.
