Explore the legacy left by the Jewish community in the city and know how they passed here, always with the national context in mind. When did the Jews arrive? When did you leave and why, and how did you leave the country? Where did you live in Coimbra? What is its importance and legacy in the city and the country? What connects Coimbra/Portugal to World War II? These are some of the questions we will try to answer during the course. Get to know places in Coimbra linked to their Jewish past, some of them of great national and international importance (like the Inquisition Court, or the Judiciary). Discover the incredible legacy of the Jewish community in Coimbra.

Hear stories of the Knights Templar, a saint murdered for love, the tragedy of Tomar's Jewish community, royal intrigue, and the people who shaped Portuguese history. Along the way you'll discover hidden corners, traditional crafts, local culture, and receive insider tips on where to eat, drink, and explore after the tour. Fun, informative, and full of personality, this experience feels less like a guided tour and more like exploring Tomar with a knowledgeable friend who loves sharing its stories.

Coimbra is known as the city of students because it has the oldest Portuguese university, founded in the 13th century, built next to the old royal palace and attached to the old Roman forum, as if emulating the ancient acropolis of classical knowledge in Athens. The academic traditions merge perfectly with the legends and traditions of Portugal’s almost millennia-old history, where the stories of bloody battles and tragic loves seem serene when you gaze at the peaceful Mondego River, which runs through the city and Portugal. Discover the main attractions of this amazing city, on this private tour by former students of the University of Coimbra.
