Free Night Exploration: Valencia's Mysteries & Folklore
Our adventure begins at the designated meeting point beside the Lonja de la Seda. From there, we will set off on a free journey into Valencia's darker narratives, enhanced by auditory effects and eerie projections.
As we navigate through the vibrant Plaza del Mercado, be prepared to uncover the grisly events that once unfolded in this locale, which was historically home to the city’s gallows. Here, you will hear the tale of Morro de Baques, a notorious executioner infamous for his severe punishments inflicted on the condemned.
Diving into the 15th century, we will reveal stories of passion and vice from the Poblat de Bernat de la Villa, recognized as the largest brothel in the Mediterranean during that era.
We will continue our stroll through Valencia's heart, uncovering how the Cathedral, the Miguelete Tower, and the Church of San Juan del Hospital intertwine with the most dreadful crimes and epidemics that afflicted the city.
To conclude our journey, we will shed light on the tragic occurrences that led to the infamous attack on Valencia's Jewish quarter. After two hours of delving into the most sinister legends of the city, our exploration will wrap up.
