The Oporto Jewish Community always opens its institutions to students aged 12 to 18, despite the total apathy and absence of the State.
Knowing the past and present of the Jewish community is a key to thinking about the future of a country.
Schools across the country marked the date of the Expulsion Edict.
Throughout the day, students learned that Jews were present in the territory long before the founding of the kingdom in the twelfth century and that they were linked to its development.
The new painting works concern the role of the Jews in the administration of the county, its development and the phase of its fall when they were forced to leave.
