The seat of the Spanish Inquisition has been turned into a great museum on the subject. Thoughtful and informative it is worth the quick trip across the river if you are in the area. They have modern exhibitions mixed with the archeology of the castle.

Owner description:
This museum sits on the site of the excavated 12th-century Castillo de San Jorge which in the 15th-century became the first headquarters of Spain’s notorious Inquisition. The museum places in context the events which followed the Christian Reconquest of Spain, when many of the Jews who remained and converted became suspected of heresy, and subject to torture – from water-boarding to the rack - designed to extract confessions.
