Old main synagogue, Medieval synagogue in Jewish Quarter, Segovia, Spain

The rectangular prayer hall contains three naves separated by two rows of five horseshoe arches supported by octagonal pillars with vegetal decorations.

The synagogue served the Jewish community from 1373 until 1410, when Christian authorities seized it and transformed it into the Church of Corpus Christi.

The building incorporates Mudejar architectural elements, reflecting the intersection of Jewish and Moorish design traditions in medieval Spain.

The entrance through a courtyard at 7 Plaza del Corpus requires a 1 euro admission fee and remains near the Plaza Major bus stop.

A painting titled 'Miracle in the Synagogue' by Vicente Cutanda from 1902 decorates the interior of this restored religious structure.

Location: Segovia

Architectural style: Mudéjar
