Your Experience

Your Experience

No trip to Valencia is complete without visiting the city's own 'Sistine Chapel,' the San Nicolas Church! Located in the heart of Valencia, the church has opened to the public only recently, despite being one of the oldest churches in the city. Simply pick up your audio guide at the entrance (it is available in English, German, and Italian) and go exploring this stunning building. Funded over 700 years ago, the church was formerly a Gothic temple that, in the course of the centuries, came to own the amazing facade that it has today. By the end of the 17th century, its inside walls were bedecked with beautiful paintings that were completely covered by an opulent Baroque style! With the help of the Fundación Hortensia Herrero Maecenas, over 2000 square meters of these lovely paintings were restored. Spend your time here exploring all this and more, at your own pace.
