A museum inside Portugal’s oldest Shul reopened on Tuesday following a two-year renovation.

The Interpretive Center of Tomar Synagogue and Abraão Zacuto Luso-Hebraic Museum in Tomar, Portugal—a little more than an hour-and-a-half from the country’s capital, Lisbon—was built in the 15th century.

It was abandoned until it was restored in 1921 by a Polish-born Jew, Samuel Schwarz.

Inside the shul are four pillars, representing the Imahos.
