Córdoba Synagogue is a historic religious site located in the Jewish Quarter of Córdoba, Spain. Built in 1315, it is one of only three synagogues from that era that still exist in Spain today. The synagogue features a stunning Mudéjar architectural style, characterized by intricate stucco work and decorative motifs. After the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492, the synagogue was repurposed for various uses, including a hospital and a chapel. It was declared a national monument in 1885 and has since been restored to preserve its historical significance.
