Medieval Jewish quarter of Salzedas

Located in central north Portugal, 360 km from Lisbon, the village of Salzedas hides a well kept secreta medieval Jewish quarter about to crumble in ruins.
The neighborhood worked in a ghetto, the homes communicating with each other. You can circulate through 40 homes in closed circuit without coming down to the streets.

The gypsy



He is a widower; he pulls his cart up and down hills so steep, you wouldn't believe. He has only strange and old fashioned clothes to sell but no one ever sees him sell anything.
People say he flipped out and everyone knows who he is. I didn't get his name.
