The Palma Jewish Culture Week 2022 will be celebrating the Jewish cultural legacy from the 13th to the 27th of September. Cinema, live music, guided tours of Palma’s old Jewish quarter and even an open day at Palma’s synagogue form part of the programme of this event.

During the month of September you can enjoy a wide range of cultural events. All of them linked to the Hebrew world and culture. This series of activities was born within the framework of the European Day of Jewish Culture, which is celebrated on the first Sunday in September. However, the high interest evolved into a cycle of activities that is now extended for a week.
