Valencia Audio Tour: Hidden Palaces & Legends of Ciutat Vella

Embark on the Valencia Audio Tour: Hidden Palaces & Legends of Ciutat Vella

A noble’s masked ball once sparked a scandal so fierce that whispers still echo behind stone arches in Valencia’s Ciutat Vella. Beyond the sunlit plazas and bustling cafés, a warren of palaces hides betrayals, forbidden alliances, and rumors carved deep into ancient stairwells. This self-guided audio tour unlocks doors most travelers pass by, inviting you to trace footsteps through power struggles, secret renovations, and vanished family crests.

Why did the Palace of the Generalitat double as both prison and seat of power? Which shadowy owner of the Catalá de Valeriola snapped up an entire city block in one bold move? What mysterious symbol sits forgotten atop the Marquis de la Scala’s storied tower?

Wander narrow lanes where rebellion simmered under festival banners and political rivals jostled for control. Let shifting sunlight reveal hidden mosaics and faded coats of arms, turning each step into a leap across centuries.

Ready to discover what these stately stones are hiding? Start exploring now—the secrets of Ciutat Vella await.
