The synagogue in Santa Maria da Devesa still stands, and despite Portugal's expulsion of Jews in 1496 was used by Marranos as a religious sanctuary and school until the 16th century. Today it houses a small museum dedicated to Castelo de Vide's historical Jewish community.
The Synagogue of Castelo de Vide is a well-preserved medieval synagogue in Santa Maria da Devesa, Castelo de Vide, in the Alentejo Region of Portugal.
