Palau de la Generalitat Valenciana, Gothic palace in central Valencia, Spain.
The Palau de la Generalitat Valenciana is a Gothic palace in central Valencia with a rectangular layout and two flanking towers. The structure features triple windows with columns on its main floor, combined with Renaissance additions that blend architectural styles.
The palace was founded in 1421 as a tax office for the Crown and underwent major renovations between 1481 and 1520. These expansions shaped the structure into what visitors see today.
The palace contains rooms decorated with artwork that tells the story of Valencia's governing traditions. The locally made ceramic tiles and painted surfaces reflect the craftsmanship that defined the region throughout the centuries.
The palace welcomes visitors who arrange tours in advance through the official contact channels. It helps to plan ahead and confirm visiting hours before arrival.
A tower was added in 1521 combining Renaissance details with classical elements in an unusual blend. This mix shows how different architectural periods meet within a single building.
