Torre-campanario de Santa Catalina
The Baroque tower of Santa Catalina rises over the square of the same name, right in the historic centre: a lesser-known lookout than the Torres de Serranos or Quart, with views over the Mercado district.
The Church of Santa Catalina, Gothic in origin with a Baroque bell tower added in the 17th century, is one of the most photogenic corners of central Valencia: its octagonal tower, slightly tilted, rises above one of the city's liveliest squares for terrace bars.
Entry to the church is free, but climbing the tower requires a small ticket and follows a more limited schedule than other monuments — it's worth confirming the hours on the day itself, since tower visits depend on the parish's availability.
