Cordoba Again

I found the Jews! Well, they don't live there anymore, but while in Cordoba we visited the historically jewish area and the only remaining synagogue in Andalucia from before the inquisition. Below is a statue of Maimonides (sp?), a well respected Jewish doctor and thinker for whom a number of streets and areas in Cordoba are named.

 Inside the synagogue, this is an arch of Muslim influence, popular architecture at the time the synagogue was built. There's a cross painted under it from after it was turned into a church during the inquisition.

The synagogue was tiny, this is the balcony where women sat. The neighborhood is no longer a Jewish neighborhood, but the synagogue remains as a museum.
