Núcleo Museológico da Sinagoga de Castelo de Vide

Although its exact founding is uncertain, it is known that a Jewish quarter existed in Castelo de Vide in the 14th century. A visit to the Castelo de Vide Synagogue Museum will allow visitors to explore the interior of this place of worship, including the tabernacle, with its recesses for the lamps of the "Holy Oils." To the right of this piece, a tabletop for the sacred scriptures, with seven balls embedded at the base, representing the six days in which God created the world and the seventh day, the final day of rest from his work.
