Divided into different districts, which correspond to the different stages of its expansion, the Jewish part of Toledo is an intricate maze. You can have a grasp of the real overview of what the Jews of Toledo were like. and how they lived for at least eleven centuries. According to some Jewish writings, the Jewish settlement in Toledo is the most ancient not only in Spain, but in the entire Iberian Peninsula.[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container][fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” hundred_percent_height=”no” hundred_percent_height_scroll=”no” hundred_percent_height_center_content=”yes” equal_height_columns=”yes” menu_anchor=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” status=”published” publish_date=”” class=”” id=”” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_position=”center center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” fade=”no” background_parallax=”none” enable_mobile=”no” parallax_speed=”0.3″ video_mp4=”” video_webm=”” video_ogv=”” video_url=”” video_aspect_ratio=”16:9″ video_loop=”yes” video_mute=”yes” video_preview_image=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”0px” padding_top=”5%” padding_right=”5%” padding_bottom=”0px” padding_left=”5%”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ layout=”1_1″ spacing=”” center_content=”no” link=”” target=”_self” min_height=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” background_image_id=”” background_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.55)” background_image=”https://spainsavvy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/sephardic-toledo.jpg” background_position=”center center” undefined=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” hover_type=”liftup” border_size=”0″ border_color=”” border_style=”solid” border_position=”all” border_radius_top_left=”” border_radius_top_right=”” border_radius_bottom_left=”” border_radius_bottom_right=”” box_shadow=”no” box_shadow_vertical=”” box_shadow_horizontal=”” box_shadow_blur=”0″ box_shadow_spread=”0″ box_shadow_color=”” box_shadow_style=”” padding_top=”5%” padding_right=”10%” padding_bottom=”5%” padding_left=”10%” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_offset=”” last=”no”][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=””]

Traces of Jewish history in Toledo

The most ancient Jewish settlement in the Iberian Peninsula

According to Isaac Abravanel (Abarbanel), a Jewish theologist born in 1437, the first settlers in Toledo were exiles from the tribes on Judah and Benjamin. This Jews probably established themselves there when the city became the capital of the Visigoths. Definitely, it was in some moment during the fourth or fifth centuries. Many Jewish buildings in Toledo have been well preserved, as well as some tombstones, that are preserved in the archeological museum of the town.

The Muslims ruled Toledo during the 11th century. In that period, a large population of Jews occupied Toledo, owning a wide variety of businesses such as textile manufacture, tanning and dyeing or commerce. With time, Toledo became a center of Jewish scholarship, translation and science. This situation remained unchanged after the conquest of Toledo by Alfonso VI in 1085. The community developed to become the most prominent in the kingdom of Castile, one of the most important in medieval Spain.

The language used by the Jews in Toledo was a mix of Arabic and Hebrew. In their documents there are sources that reveal a well-developed economic life, with records of Jews having purchased land, as lenders and borrowers.
