Lonja del Pescado, Art gallery in coastal Alicante, Spain.
The maritime-inspired building features curved lines, decorative tiles, and large windows that illuminate its spacious exhibition halls and corridors throughout the structure.
The structure, completed in 1917, transformed from a fish market into an art gallery, marking the evolution of Alicante's waterfront development through the 20th century.
The gallery maintains rotating exhibitions of contemporary art while preserving the architectural elements that reflect Valencia's maritime trading heritage and artistic innovations.
Located near Alicante's harbor, the gallery opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 20:00, with guided tours available in multiple languages upon request.
The building combines industrial functionality with Art Nouveau elements, including iron columns, ceramic details, and wooden beams that create geometric patterns across the ceiling.
