Everything about Pedro De Herrera totally explained
Pedro de Herrera was a
Spanish politician known for his role in the reconquest of
Gibraltar and for leading a community of
Sefardic Jews who settled for three years in this town.
Herrera led a group of Jewish refugees from
Córdoba in 1474. Sefardic Gibraltar was granted sovereignty by the Duke of Medina Sidonia. The community grew to over 4,000, who paid taxes to Medina Sidonia and established a garrison of cavalry at his command. This lasted only 2 years though. In 1476, the Duke of Medina Sidonia realigned with Spain; the Sefardim were then forced back to
Córdoba and the
Inquisition. Herrera's community was later dispersed from Córdoba and
Sevilla subsequent to the Edict of Expulsion of
1492.
