The discovery of the synagogue in the Jewish quarter of Lorca is an exceptional event because of its state of conservation, and also because it has offered important archaeological information in order to have better information on this type of building during the 15 th century.

The synagogue of Lorca offers a rectangular ground plan with two entrances open out onto a patio; one of those doors gives way to a lobby where there is a wash basin to perform the ritual ablutions before the prayer, and links with a great meeting hall enclosed by brick benches built in the walls, where some fragments of the Holy Ark ( Aron Ha-godesh ) have been preserved, and the elevated platform for the reading of the Torah ( Bimah ), as well as the transit area between both ( Via Sacra ). There was a way of access through a third entrance to the women gallery ( matroneum ), which was elevated.

The finding of many shards of glass needs to be highlighted as well. Those fragments have permitted the reconstruction of twenty lamps with which the building was lit.
