The Museum of History of the Jews incorporates a cabalistic parchment in its permanent collection

This amulet proceeds from Central Europe and dates from ends of the 18th Century

The Board Call of Girona has acquired a parchment with drawings and hebrew and cabalistic inscriptions, which form an amulet of protection against the evil eye.
It is an interesting object, that in spite of its origin, has a close relation with Girona, as the hassidism, cabalistic current, has its origins in the cabbala from Girona on the 12th and 13th Centuries.
