This street is dedicated to the 16th century Valencian chronicler, historian and notary, Rafael Martí de Viciana.
In this kind of square that forms Viciana Street, there is a computer scientist design and video game school.
This street is located in one of the highest points in the city. In it was the old house of the Cid, at the height of numbers 29 and 31 of the street. The Cid's house was demolished in 1855.
This house of the Cid became a theater from 1761 to 1832, the year in which the theatrical performances began in the new Principal Theater. It was the Balda theater.
The construction of this church began in the 13th century on the site of an old mosque. In the second half of the fourteenth century it was expanded. Formerly it was called the church of San Jorge. Only the Romanesque style bell tower remains from these periods, very archaic for the time (13th century), and which was restored during the years 2000-2005.
In the 15th century a new church was built, which will later be decorated in a baroque style inside (17th century), and another reform in the 19th century gives it its current appearance.
The church was the headquarters of the Cofradía de Ballesteros de Valencia.
This square is so named because the Crespi de Valldaura family lived here for a time, a family of nobles who accompanied Jaime I in the conquest of Valencia.
In this square is the Official College of Property Administrators of Valencia.
This small square is located in front of the entrance to the Archbishop's Palace.
The building opposite, from the 15th century, obtained its current appearance with the works carried out in the 19th century. It belonged to the Dukes of Villahermosa during the 18th century, but in the middle of the 19th century it was bought by the Marquis del Campo. Later it was acquired by the counts of Berbedel, at the beginning of the 20th century. From 1814 to 1842 it had been the headquarters of the Captaincy General. It is finally acquired by the Valencia City Council in 1974.
The City Museum exhibits municipal art collections and a collection of weights and measures. It also holds temporary exhibitions.
This Visigoth crypt was built to bury a higher ecclesiastical office. It receives the name of the Crypt of the San Vicente Prison, because in this place there was also the prison where the Valencian saint was locked up.
In this street is the Archbishop's Palace, hence the name of the street.
Calle del Palau starts from the Romanesque façade of the cathedral. This late Romanesque façade is related to the Façade of the Fillols (Façade of the Ahijados) of the Seo Vieja de Lérida.
Near this door was the primitive bell tower of the cathedral, after passing the arch of Carrer de la Barchilla.
The Archbishop's Palace, on the right, was started in the 13th century, but there are very few remains from this time. The current building dates from the mid-20th century, as it was burned in 1936.
This street is named after the pattern of the barchillas (the barchilla was a measure of capacity) that is located under the arch, in the part that falls to the Archbishop's Palace.
