Recomendable su visita en el interior, solo cuesta 1€. Antigua sinagoga mayor de Segovia, la cual sufrió un incendio y todo se quemó. Aun así, a la hora de restaurarla, siguieron el mismo diseño de la antigua sinagoga judía, a pesar de ser ya un convento cristiano. Merece la pena entrar y ver sus capitales con forma de piña, el artesonado... Imperdible! Se encuentra en la entrada de la judería de Segovia.

This is a charming, small church located right in front of the old Jewish quarter, rich with fascinating history. The entrance fee is just 1 euro. While the church itself is quite small and can be fully explored in about 30 minutes, it offers a meaningful glimpse into the area’s past. Most of the information inside is in Spanish, but upon entry, you’ll receive a concise English booklet that covers the history and key facts about the site. If you’re interested in history and want a quick, affordable visit, this spot is worth your time
