Description
The Torres de Serranos is one of the twelve gates that formed part of the ancient city wall of Valencia Spain. It was built in Valencian Gothic style at the end of the 14th century (between 1392 and 1398) and was the main entrance to the city. It was originally built with a defensive function but from 1586 until 1887 the towers were used as a prison for nobles. It is an important landmark and one of the best-preserved monuments of Valencia. Of the ancient city wall, which was pulled down in 1865 on the orders of the provincial governor, only the Serrans Towers, the 15th century Quart Towers, and some other archaeological remains and ruins, such as those of the Jewish Gate (Puerta de los JudÃos), have survived.
