Judiaria de Castelo de Vide
It is located in the medieval area of the village of Castelo de Vide, next to the castle, in the former Jewish quarter, as documented in the 14th and 15th centuries. The neighborhood was crossed by one of the castle's main communication routes, and its disintegration began during the reign of King Manuel I, following the decree imposing Catholic obedience on the Jews who, to avoid being forced to leave the village, gradually converted to New Christians. Hebrew symbols can be seen on some doorposts.
