Mikveh
<\/strong>The Jewish archaeological site of Besal\u00fa, declared a Bien Cultural de Inter\u00e9s Nacional1 <\/sup>in 2013, houses a synagogue, a courtyard, and a mikveh. With a water capacity of 331 liters, the mikveh stands out for its depth allowing direct filling from the groundwater, without the need for pipelines. It consists of an underground rectangular room topped with a barrel vault, accessible by a flight of thirty-six steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Besal\u00fa Community
<\/strong>The presence of a Jewish community in Besal\u00fa dates back to 1229, confirmed by a document from King James I of Aragon reserving the profession of moneylender for Jews. In 1342, a quarter of the population was Jewish, but by 1435, the community disappeared and migrated to Castell\u00f3 d’Emp\u00faries and Granollers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
