Manises, Municipality in Horta Oest, Valencia, Spain

Manises occupies the western end of Horta de València on the right bank of Turia River with direct access to Valencia International Airport.

The settlement emerged during Roman times, developed under Arab rule, and King James I granted the land to Don Artal de Luna in the thirteenth century.

The ceramics manufacturing in Manises reached European recognition during the Middle Ages, with golden and blue lusterware pottery distributed to royal courts.

The municipality connects to Valencia through metro lines and bus services, while containing a public hospital that serves 150,000 people in surrounding districts.

The School of Ceramics, established in 1917, maintains the centuries-old tradition of pottery making that characterizes the industrial identity of this region.
