Marranos: Secret Seder in Spain during the times of inquisition, painting by Moshe Maimon

Marranos (; , sing. marrano; , sing. marrà) were originally Jews living in the Iberian Peninsula who had converted, or been forced to convert, to Christianity, some of whom may have continued to observe rabbinic Judaism in secret. The term came into later use in 1492 with the Castilian Alhambra Decree, reversing protections originally in the Treaty of Granada (1491). The converts were also known as Cristianos nuevos (Spanish) and Cristãos novos (Portuguese), which mean New Christians, and conversos (the converted).
