Description
You will enjoy the best tour of Besalú with the city's official guides. We are Official Guides of Catalonia and we live in this incredible small town of Besalú. We will let you discover the secrets of the Jewish community and the Miqvé, one of the oldest Jewish baths in the world. History, secrets, and legends await you in Besalú. If you come on Tuesday, you can buy fresh products from the region at the weekly market. We start the tour by crossing the beautiful 12th-century bridge while enjoying an incredible panoramic view of Besalú and traveling back in time. On the other side of the bridge, the narrow streets, medieval squares, and ancient stone houses transport us to other times when the city was one of the most important in Catalonia. We will enter the Jewish quarter, where we will be warmly welcomed by the jewel of Besalú: the Miqvé, the best-preserved Jewish ritual bath in the world.Tickets are not included in the price. They must be purchased separately to take the tour. From the synagogue square, we will have a unique panoramic view of the Romanesque bridge. We continue to the ancient church of the Sant Pere monastery, consecrated over 1000 years ago, the Romanesque pilgrim hospital Sant Julià, and the mezuzah, which is preserved in one of the medieval buildings. We finish the tour after almost two hours of walking.
