Audio Guide to Palma de Mallorca's Medieval Jewish Quarter
Audio Guide to Palma de Mallorca's Medieval Jewish Quarter
Discover a unique community in the City of Courtyards on this self-guided audio tour. Experience the magic of GPS playback on this immersive walk through Palma's medieval Jewish quarter. Whether it's your first time in Palma's old town or you're familiar with the maze of medieval streets, there's plenty to discover on this route. I have studied the history of the Converso and Chueta (Xueta) communities in Mallorca since I arrived here in 2014. What do the words Converso and Chueta actually mean? Join me on a narrated walk through this area to find out. Together we'll explore the legacy of the darker chapters of this Mediterranean island's history. The route leads us through the twists of narrow lanes to architectural gems. You'll meet famous cartographers, learn to decipher street names, and take a look into Palma's elegant, easily overlooked courtyards. If anyone ever told you history is boring, they never studied the history of the city's Jewish quarter!
