The Jewish quarter was a walled district of lanes, small squares and houses between the cathedral and the city walls. Today it is a quiet part of the old town, and the Centro Didáctico de la Judería explains how people lived here. The former main synagogue, now the Corpus Christi church, stands at its edge. Allow time for wrong turns, since the lanes are narrow and not straight.
