Tour description

Discover on this route who "El Desmanido" was, characters such as the great Moshe bel Shem Tob of León, the place of the Jews in medieval León (current Barrio Húmedo), what they did and how different their life was in León from over five centuries compared to other places in Spain. Where were all those treasures that they were not able to take? Who were his friends and enemies?

The spirit of those ancient Jews roams our streets!

A tour of the Jewish Lion, steeped in tradition and mysticism. History, characters, customs and legends of a town that for centuries forged the image of the city as much as the Christians. The Sephardim may have been forced to leave , but that does not mean that they have disappeared...
