Monastery of la Murta, Gothic monastery in Alzira, Spain.
The Monastery of la Murta features stone walls, elevated towers, and multiple chapels integrated into a substantial religious complex in Valencia province.
Founded in 1401 on land donated by Arnau de Serra, the monastery served as a religious center until its closure in 1835 due to ecclesiastical confiscations.
The monastery accumulated numerous artistic treasures and received visits from King Philip II, who established an important library within the structure in 1586.
The monastery grounds provide multiple hiking trails with designated parking areas, tables, and benches for visitors exploring the natural surroundings.
El Palomo tower remains as the principal preserved structure of the original monastery, standing among orange groves in the Valley of La Murta.
