Virtual Walking Tour: Jewish Lima
Hosted By: The Museum of Jewish Heritage-- A Living Memorial to the Holocaust
Join the Museum of Jewish Heritage and Our Travel Circle for this special tour of one of the oldest non-indigenous communities in Lima, Peru.
Steeped in history, the capital city of Lima, Peru will welcome us with beautiful colonial vestiges of the Spanish occupation. Follow virtually in the footsteps of Manuel Bautista Perez, a key member of the “secret” Jewish community of Lima who was accused of being Jewish in 1635 and later killed by the Inquisition in 1639. Which begs questions that the tour guide, Vanessa, will address about the Inquisition of Lima and the “Autos de Fe” (rituals of public penance.)
