L’AEPJ a pour objet d’œuvrer pour la préservation, l’accès à tous et la mise en valeur de la culture juive et du patrimoine juif, surtout en Europe.

L’AEPJ fait découvrir les sites juifs au grand public, à savoir entre autres les synagogues, cimetières, bains rituels, musées, quartiers, monuments juifs, notamment par l’organisation annuelle de la JOURNEE EUROPEENNE DE LA CULTURE JUIVE.

L’AEPJ est également chargée de développer et de faire connaître l’ITINERAIRE EUROPEEN DU PATRIMOINE JUIF.

Le Grand Livre de Sepharad - Red de Juderías de España

For the first time in Spain a great book about the Spanish Jews is published. This book is the result of two years of research. More of 500 images, most of them unreleased.

Full color Book (33 x 25 cm.).

This book wishes to offer its readers a journey through the 21 cities of the Network of Jewish Spanish Quarters – Routes of Sefarad. Both the text, written by Pancracio Celdrán, and the magnificent photographs by Agustín Martínez attempt to accompany you through the Jewish quarters of Spain based on an urban, architectural and artistic itinerary.

A journey in memory of the route built by a culture which complemented the mosaic of traditions, beliefs and cultures of the kingdoms of medieval Spain and contributed towards a legacy that is being recovered. This is evidence of the effort undergone by the cities along the network for the restoration of Jewish heritage and, as might be expected, towards the development of policies for renovation as well as cultural and social development around this cultural heritage.

The recent restoration of singular buildings, discovery of ancient synagogues, recovery of urban layouts that were long forgotten and abandoned, new sign-posting in Jewish quarters, recovery of the works of distinguished poets, philosophers and men of science, the opening of charming hotels in Jewish quarters, as well as the organization of temporary exhibits that tour around Spain are some of the initiatives taken by the cities along the Network.

We hope that by reading the Network of Jewish Spanish Quarters you are invited to visit the Routes of Sefarad.
