Palace House of the Counts of Ròtova

Highlight • Historical Site

It is a Baroque urban building built in the second half of the 16th century and remodeled at the end of the 17th century, it is therefore what remains of the original building, the most important architectural heritage element of Ròtova. It is located in the part of the urban center where in the past the town was accessed from the royal road of Xàtiva. Historians say if its original building would not rise on the site occupied by an Arab control tower. Its origin would be an old manor house that covers an entire village block and that still today shows a slender facade on which the noble coat of arms of the family stands out in carved wood. The imperial limestone staircase with a robust column, supporting a canopy made of Arab tiles, also draws attention to the palace. Also pay attention to the pleasant layout of its courtyard enclosed by a battlemented wall, which preserves the tilework of the original 16th century palace. Inside the area of the palace, archaeological excavations have been carried out which have allowed the discovery of ceramic remains dating back to the Iberian era. The building retains some original rooms, being divided into three parts. The external warehouse housed an almássera, the parts of which are now in the Benialí cooperative. Of particular note is the large garden at the back of the palace, of which the remains of the walls that closed the enclosure remain, now partly occupied by the current Passeig del Nou d’Octubre. Since the beginning of 2004, the palace has been the property and heritage of the town of Ròtova, with public use projected with its future restoration that will allow, in addition to the location of the municipal offices, the adaptation of a cultural center with an auditorium and a garden. While the palace is being adapted, the current situation shows a space occupied by the palace has a surface of 1913.06 m2, in which the following spaces can be distinguished: A main building of the 16th-17th century, in the form of "L " with three and one surface per floor of 393.72 m2 and a total surface of 1,181.16 m2 built, which shows masonry walls 60 cm wide, forged with wooden beams and covered with Arabic tiles. In addition to a large access staircase to the main facade, topped with the noble coat of arms of the Comptes de Ròtova. A front access patio of 393.72 m2 with external enclosure formed by a crenellated masonry wall from which access to the garden located in the rear. Back gardens of 742.87 m2, where we will find pine trees. Annex buildings from the beginning of the 20th century, with a floor area of 300.06 m2.

Large mural by Toni Espinar

Highlight • Monument

612 m2 mural by the painter and restorer Toni Espinar. It is dedicated to the most universal Valencian poet, Ausiàs March. The work is located in the Nau d'Usos Múltiples of the town.
In this mural appear Ausiàs March (1400-1459), the first and second wives, Isabel Martorell and Joana Escorna, and the fellow poet and father of Ausiàs, Pere March. In the composition, there are fragments of the verses of both poets: "Life is short and art is shown to be long" (A.M.); "I wonder how no one who has eyes can see it..." (P. March), and references to the signs he used to refer to the recipients of the compositions: "love, love", "lily among thistles"... Also, death, another central theme of his poetry.
Ausiàs March was a knight and royal major falconer, and lord of Beniarjó, Pardines and Vernissa. In the mural it is indicated by the central falcon, and the sugar cane and grape crops. It also includes other historical references, such as the lord of Ròtova, Joan de Fluvià, a contemporary of Ausiàs March, who promoted improvements in the hydraulic irrigation system, and the Elegreix bridge, which led the waters of the mother ditch of Rótova in Alfauir, above the ravine that separated the terms. Likewise, the mountains of the Vernissa valley are important, as they present continuity with the mural next door, located near the Roman villa of La Sort.
