Monterrey, founded in 1596 in northern Mexico (Nuevo León), is intimately linked to the history of conversos in New Spain. Several of its founding families, notably the Carvajal, were of Judeo-converso origin and fell victim to the Inquisition. An open Jewish community was not reconstituted until the nineteenth and twentieth centuries with the arrival of Ashkenazic and Sephardic immigrants.
