Santa María la Blanca Synagogue Print, TOLEDO

Art print from the Toledo Series. Sigagogue of Santa María la Blanca

Built in 1180 as a synagogue and, having functioned as such for 211 years, it was expropriated and transformed into a church as a result of the pogrom of 1391. Built in 1180 (as witnessed by the visible inscription on one of its beams), this Mudejar building has five naves separated by pillars on which horseshoe arches rest. Its naves, formed by a succession of horseshoe arches supported by pillars, tend to recall the typology of a mosque. The interior layout and Moorish style of Santa María la Blanca have served as a model for important European and American synagogues.
