BASÍLICA DE LA VIRGEN DE LOS DESAMPARADOS
Plaza de la Virgen, s/n, 46001 Valencia
Telf. 963 919 214
The Basilica is dedicated to the patron saint of the city and is the most important religious building in Valencia from the 17th century. It was also the first new Baroque construction of its time. Built between 1652 and 1667 by Diego Martínez Ponce de Urrana, it is the only church in the old part of the city that was built new from the foundations up, and not on an existing parish church or convent.
