We´ve prepared the Jewish Palma Tour to allow you to discover Call Major of Palma from end to end. This is the Northeast of the city where the Jews settled and lived.

In the company of a Spanish speaking guide, travel through the massive conversions of 1435, walking through the first Synagogue Major, Monti-sion Church or Pelletería and Sol Streets, known as the New Synagogue. Do you want to find out what daily life was like for Jews? What about their customs and culture?
On this walking tour, contemplate how Jews were able to adapt to new customs and cultures that little by little spread across the whole island. It was in 1300 when they moved to the Call Major from the old Roman city placed in the Call de la Almudaina and the Callet.
The Call is full of alleyways that we walk through just like children from the city’s medieval period, through the streets Sol, Monti-sion and Santa Clara.
Live the history of the Inquisition where some inhabitants of the Call were persecuted, even sentenced to death and discover its inhabitants’ everyday life through the most intriguing corners of this quarter.
Come with us to discover how the city was reborn after the Jews were expelled and the appearance of the Xuetes, who are descendants of converted Jews. Live the medieval history of Palma de Mallorca, walk through its Cal alleyways, be amazed byits emblematic synagogues and feel the history that remains reflected on the walls of this island even today.
