THE THREE CULTURES IN TOLEDO

This is a walking tour prepared to discover some of the most emblematic sights of the three religions that lived together for almost eight centuries in this city.

On the hand of the Moslem world we wisit the Mosque of Cristo de la Luz. This is the oldest complete construction still standing in the city, dating from the 10th century. After the Reconquest of Toledo one absid was added and it was converted to a Christian temple.

The best example of all the Christian buildings in the city is its Cathedral, the Primate Cathedral of Spain. It will be also visited in this tour.

Finally, in the Jewish quarter we’ll visit the Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca. It is one example of the three cultures, because it was designed by Muslims for Jews and then was used by Christians.
