Santos Juanes Church: Entry Ticket + Immersive Baroque Experience

About This Experience

Visit the Parish of Santos Juanes, originally an old mosque transformed into a chapel, one of the foundational parishes of Valencia after the Christian conquest in the 13th century. Fires have played a significant role in its history, with reconstruction efforts after a fire in 1311 leading to a larger temple. A second fire in 1592 prompted a redesign in the Baroque style, resulting in its current appearance. The decorative interior suffered greatly in a fire in 1936. A recent restoration effort, supported by the Fundación Hortensia Herrero, has symbolically recovered the apses lost in 1936. Modern video mapping techniques digitally restore the artwork of Palomino, presenting a recreation of the Baroque features of Santos Juanes.
