Portuguese village inaugurates state-of-the-art Jewish Center and synagogue
 | Affixing the first mezuza in
Trancoso in 500 years! |
Transcoso is a tiny village in the north of Portugal. But, in the 14th and 15th centuries, Trancoso was home to a large and flourishing Jewish community. That came to an end with the arrival of the Inquisition. Now, the town of Trancoso is honoring its Jewish heritage with the establishment of the Isaac Cardoso Center for Jewish Interpretation, along with a new synagogue called Beit Mayim Hayim - "the House of Living Waters."
