Who Are Sephardic Jews?

The term Sephardic Jews refers to the descendants of the Jewish communities originally established in the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal). Following the Expulsion of 1492, these communities dispersed across the globe, taking their unique traditions and cultural heritage—including the Ladino language—with them. Understanding this history connects us to centuries of enduring traditions and a vibrant global Jewish life today.
