Crypt of Saint Vincente

It may sound creepy, but it is fascinating to visit the crypt of the Prison of Saint Vicente the Martyr, beneath the Church of Saint Vicente, formerly the site of an ancient Visigoth chapel, which later became a prison for Valencia's patron saint. An audiovisual tour of the crypt brings to life the city's ancient history, taking visitors through Visigoth altars, past exhibits of Muslim artefacts, and Roman murals.
