From the Valencia World / Places

Palau de la Generalitat

See Valencia’s seat of government for a rare civic interior where late Gothic structure meets Renaissance detail, though an exterior look is the reliable spontaneous option.

Palau de la Generalitat

Why go

The palace makes Valencia’s institutional history tangible through rooms built for successive governing bodies. A Gothic courtyard and flying stair lead toward the main floor, while the Golden Hall’s polychrome coffered ceiling and the portrait gallery of Valencian kings reveal the richer ceremonial side of the building.

What to look for

  • A Gothic open courtyard is crossed by a prominent stone staircase.
  • The Golden Hall takes its name from a richly colored and gilded coffered ceiling.
  • Gothic openings sit beside Renaissance doors, corners and upper windows.

Useful to know

  • Confirm an interior visit before building your day around the palace.
  • For an exterior-only stop, compare its façade with the Cathedral and basilica around Plaza de la Virgen.
