Palacio de los Olvidados

TIME : 2016/2/19 1:32:24

Lest we forget, Jews played a vital role in the glorious Nasrid Emirate of Granada that reigned from the 1200s to 1492, built on peaceful Christian, Muslim and Jewish coexistence. The aptly named 'palace of the forgotten', which opened in 2014 in the Albayzín, revisits this oft-ignored Jewish legacy. It's the second and best of Granada's new Jewish-related museums, with seven rooms filled with attractively displayed relics (scrolls, costumes and ceremonial artifacts) amassed from around Spain.

A well-versed guide takes you round the exhibits.
