About this activity

Can't miss another way to see Toledo, not least without it, "The complement to a perfect day in Toledo"

The Inquisition and witchcraft in Toledo represent a dark period in the history of the city, marked by persecution, fear and superstition. Toledo was an important religious and cultural center during the Spanish Inquisition, which began in the 15th century and continued until the 19th century.

Let yourself be carried away by the streets that once witnessed parades of condemned people to the Plaza de Zocodover and delve into the history of this most famous institution.
