The Lazama Synagogue, located in the mellah of Marrakech, was founded in 1492 by Sephardic Jews fleeing King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella's Edict of Expulsion. See the beautiful historic synagogue these refugees of the Inquisition built and learn about the Andalusian culture they brought to Morocco. Join your guide from the Mimouna Association, an NGO founded by Moroccan Muslims to preserve and promote the Judeo-Moroccan heritage, for an exclusive exploration of the synagogue and one of the largest Jewish communities in the Kingdom today.
