Discover secrets of the Gremi de Velluters – the silk velvet weavers' guild in Valencia at the very building where they were first established in the 15th century, now known as the Silk Museum. This was a golden era for Valencia, leading to the transformation of the landscape and the lifestyle in the city for centuries to come. Make your way through the Hall of Fame, which features Valencian ceramic flooring and a painting of San Jerónimo on the ceiling.
Step into San Nicolas Church, founded in the 13th century and lavishly refurbished in the 15th and 17th centuries. Marvel at the intricate Baroque frescoes by Antonio Palomino, depicting the lives of Saint Nicholas and Peter of Verona. Don’t miss the unique 'fossar' chapel and the 19th-century neo-Gothic portal that adds a distinct touch to this historic site.
Explore the Gothic grandeur of Santos Juanes Church, known for its striking facade with a walled-up rose window and ornate detailing. Inside, admire the central niche with Jacopo Bertesi’s statue of the Virgen del Rosario and soak in the rich architectural heritage that reflects Valencia’s artistic evolution over the centuries.
