SEVILLA Information:
SANTA CRUZ - The Jewish Quarter Information |
|
The Santa Cruz Quarter, the old Jewish quarter
is perhaps the area of the city which best reflects the true
Sevillian character. Wandering through the intricate Moorish
layout of streets is perhaps the best way to discover the special
details that make this a unique place: windows with beautiful
wraught-iran railings crammed with flower pots, small squares
where time seems to have stood still, mojestic palatial houses,
passages which ore barely two metres wide...
History and legend have given highly evocative names to many
of the streets and passages. Examples include Callejon del Agua
(Water Lane), Callejon de la Juderia (Jewry Lane), streets called
Susona and Pimienta (pepper), where the guild of spice-sellers
was located, the Plaza de los Venerables, a square which is
recreated in the first Act of Don Juan Tenorio, and the birth
place of Murillo. Other interesting places to visit in the quarter
include the Casa de la Memoria de Al-Andalus (Hause dedicated
to the Memory of Al-Andalus), the Hospital de los Venerables
Sacerdotes or the baroque Church of Santa Cruz. |
