Tour description
One of the best known and the most influential minorities of Split has historically been the Jewish people.
Present from the very beginnings of the Diocletian palace and the city, the Jews of Split have left an indelible mark on the city's history especially following their expulsion from Spain after 1492. On our way we will visit the main sights associated with Jewish heritage in Split, including:
- The site of the first known synagogue
- The city port
- The modern day synagogue
- The traditional Jewish quarter - the ghetto -
- The old Jewish cemetery at the first viewpoint of Marjan Hill, offering a spectacular panorama of the city centre.
Join me and let the 1700 years old tale of mysteries, conflicts, and coexistence unwind before our eyes!
