THE SINAGOGE

Author: Jesús Peláez del Rosal. Ediciones El Almendro.
Guide of the synagogue. Presenting, in its first part, a complete study of the synagogal institution from its origins to the first centuries of our era and for offering, in its second, the first complete guide – and the only one until now edited- about the synagogue of Córdoba (14th century). When visiting a synagogue, multiple questions arise. An explanation of the building from the historical, architectural or artistic point of view is not enough. It is necessary to go back in time to know its raison d’être, history and functioning.
