The expulsion of Jews in 1492 ended that, but the city still has a well-preserved Jewish quarter with several interesting museums in what used to be medieval temples. One of them, the Sinagoga de Transito, contains an extremely powerful work of art, at least I found it very powerful: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=3601286970&k=bXPQjKr&lb=1&s=O Painted by a German artist (who adopted Spain as his country) with whose work I was not familiar until yesterday.
