Morvedre (today Sagunt), a city with a Roman past, was home to one of the most important Jewish aljamas in the kingdom of Valencia from the eleventh to the fifteenth century. Its prosperous and learned community produced influential scholars and merchants; it was forced to convert or emigrate at the expulsion of 1492, leaving behind a synagogue converted into a church.
