Torres de Quart. Is truly a historical site. When you arrive it is easy to find the office. After you purchase the ticket for two euro you can leave the office and go to the right when at the bottom of the stairs. The first flight of stairs will take you up to rooftop levels on most close buildings. This is only the start. A second flight of stairs brings you to an upper level with a great view. If you look to your right entering the second level you will see a stair case that becomes two. The door to the right was open. It has a very tight staircase and when you reach the top of the stairs you are at the top of the towers. You can see much of Valencia from the top of the tower. The only thing that is missing is a simple place to sit. I take it they do not want to offer this since people will linger in the tower longer. Bring a good camera and take some great...

Las Torres de Quart fueron construidas por Pere Bonfill, quien trabajó conjuntamente con los mestres en el noble art de la pedra y Pere Compte en el siglo xv, entre los años 1441 y 1460. En las obras también intervinieron Tomás Oller y Jaume Pérez. El estilo de las torres es gótico valenciano tardío militar, imitando a las Torres o Arco del Triunfo del Castel Nuovo de Nápoles, diseñado por el arquitecto mallorquín Guillem Sagrera y donde intervinieron otros maestros de la Corona de Aragón cuando Nápoles fue conquistada por las tropas de Alfonso V el Magnánimo. Estas torres amuralladas han soportado la Guerra de la Independencia de los franceses, la de Sucesión, las cantonales y la guerra civil española. Todavía se pueden observar las huellas de los impactos provocados por los cañonazos de la Guerra de la Independencia en sus gruesos muros, pensando mucha gente que son provocados por el deterioro del paso del tiempo. En 1931 fueron declaradas Monumento Nacional, existiendo una referencia a las mismas en la ley 16/1985 sobre el Patrimonio Histórico Español. Las Torres de Quart son los restos que han llegado hasta nuestros días de la antigua muralla medieval de Valencia, junto con las Torres de Serranos, abiertas hacia el norte. Otras puertas de acceso a la ciudad de Valencia fueron las desaparecidas puertas de San Vicente hacia el sur y la Puerta del Mar hacia el este o hacia el puerto. Esas puertas desaparecieron en el siglo xix, junto con el resto de la muralla que rodeaba la ciutat vella, por orden del gobernador civil interino Cirilo Amorós, en base al pretexto de dar trabajo a los obreros parados, agrandar la ciudad y mejorar su salubridad. A partir de la última década del siglo xx, los loros y otras aves exóticas, escapadas de sus dueños, han nidificado y se han reproducido en los orificios provocados por la artillería en su fachada exterior. Ya en el siglo xxi, las Torres de Cuart siguen en pie, habiéndose realizado en ellas un proceso de restauración dFrancesc Baldomare su fachada exterior, ennegrecida por el hollín del tráfico rodado que circula incesante por la calle Quart y la calle...

This is both a fascinating peak into history and a great place to view the Valencia skyline. This tower is one of two in the city and they are the last parts of the old city wall still standing. If you look at the outside walls, you can still see the pockmarks from cannon balls and musket balls! This is not the place for anyone with mobility problems because there are so many steep steps and to reach the roof there is a very tight spiral staircase. However, if you are reasonably fit, the effort is definitely worth it. It is very cheap to enter, 2 Euros for adults. So it makes for a very interesting and inexpensive addition to your visit to the old town of Valencia.
