About Sarajevo
Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia, became home to a Sephardic Jewish community after the expulsion from Spain in 1492, established under Ottoman rule from the sixteenth century. For centuries it was one of the principal Sephardic communities of the Balkans, with a Ladino-speaking culture; the famed medieval Sarajevo Haggadah, carried from Spain, is preserved there.
