Synagogue del Tránsito. Rehabilitation of the Sephardi Museum.
According to architects Carmen Bravo and Jaime Martínez, authors of the restoration and this article, seldom have there been cases of historic buildings used as museums in which the container surpasses the content, not because of the latter’s lack of value, but because of the enormous value of the former. The main aim of restoration is to approach the building as a museum-piece in its own right, recovering spaces, illumination and circulation. The intervention eliminates constructive pathologies on the building, restores space, resolves its functionality as a museum and provides new installations, not altering the museum but respecting its historic value.
