Video Art Program at La Nau (University of Valencia) ⋅ Sala Aula Magna, representation of artistic works made in collaboration with Maritima01.

This historic building, which was declared Asset of Cultural interest in 1981, is the oldest and most emblematic facility of the Universitat de València. It was the head office of the university since its foundation in the 15th century to the first half of the 20th century.

It was built in 1497 in one of the most brilliant periods of Valencian architecture, personified in the great Father Compte.

The building was an example of Valencian neoclassical architecture, particularly the façade and cloister. The current architectural design of the building is the result of continuous remodeling ending in 1830

The university hosts main cultural program.

 Centre del Carme 

The Centre del Carme is housed in what used to be Valencia’s Royal Monastery of Our Lady of the Carmen, built in 1281. 

Currently, the Centre del Carme is a centre for
contemporary culture that hosts a wide range of artistic expressions and practices. It has become a splendid cultural venue which has been recovered for the benefi t of all Valencians.

The Colegio Mayor Rector Peset has consolidated itself in the city of Valencia as a meeting point of the University, civil society and the social and cultural entities of the city of Valencia. Within its premises you will discover a magnificent Salla de la Muralla (The Hall of the Wall) with an important feature of cultural and historic heritage of the City - an ancient Islamic wall built under the reign of Abd al-Aziz. It is described by geographer al-Udri as one of the most perfect in Al-Andalus. The Hall Of The Wal (La salla de la Muralla) is the most emblematic of the college since in it we can contemplate remains of this Islamic wall of the 11th century, which appeared during the restoration works, such as the base of the wall and a curved tower, which after its investigation and archaeological excavation, decided to recover as a historical-archaeological monument. The Hall Of The Wall is a space of 300 square meters and of multipurpose use.
