Come and discover the the Hidden Jewish Legacy of Porto
Step into the rich and often untold story of Porto’s Jewish heritage. On this immersive tour, you’ll journey through centuries of resilience, faith, and cultural revival. Wander through the old streets of the city where secret synagogues once thrived behind closed doors, and hear the tales of the crypto-Jews who kept their traditions alive in the shadows of history.

Trace the footsteps of medieval Jewish merchants and scholars who helped shape the city’s character, and uncover the deep ties between Porto and the wider Sephardic world.

The tour weaves together moving stories of survival, from the Inquisition to World War II, when Porto became a haven for Jewish refugees fleeing the horrors of the Holocaust.
Along the way, you’ll experience Porto’s unique atmosphere, blending the echoes of its Jewish past with the vibrant cityscape of today. and learn about the extraordinary life of Captain Barros Basto, the "Portuguese Dreyfus," who dedicated himself to rebuilding Porto’s Jewish community and help many to escape the horrors of World War 2.
