Discover the Crypto-Jewish contributions to modern society.
The Spanish island of Mallorca was home for hundreds of years to a thriving Jewish community where Jews played a pivotal role in cartography before having to go underground with the rise of the Spanish Inquisition in the 14th and 15th centuries.
Many Jews faced forced conversions, becoming Crypto-Jews, who displayed their Catholic face outwardly while adhering to their Jewish faith through secret signs and hidden synagogues in their homes.

We did this tour to expand our ancestral knowledge and we were all blown away by what we learned. We were moved to tears when we placed our prayers in the prayer wall and just in complete awe of the history of our ancestors. Highly recommend this experience for anyone looking for a day trip or looking to challenge their understanding of history. Dani and his team are ones we will never forget. Thank you for a beautiful day!
