Jewish Heritage Tour in Ribadavia - Galicia
Depart the pier in a private van and drive to Ribadavia. A former seat of the Kingdom of Galicia, Ribadavia captures the essence of the “ribeiros” and is not only linked to wine but also to the presence of Jewish people. Its Jewish quarter is the most significant in Galicia. In fact, the ribeiro wine trade was virtually monopolized by the Jews, they were also responsible for perfecting the cultivation of the vines, making use of the land by cutting terraces and extending the irrigation system. The Jewish quarter is organized around Plaza de Magdalena. Nearby are the Romanesque church of Santiago and a long list of other temples: Santo Domingo, O Portal, San Francisco, Santa María, San Juan... And the castle of Sarmiento. After the visit you will have the opportunity to do wine tasting and try some of the local Spanish tapas and browse the shops. The tour concludes upon return to Vigo.
