The Lonja de la Seda is one of the most important examples of Civil Gothic, and more specifically Valencian Gothic, also known as Mediterranean Gothic.

However, due to the construction of the building taking decades, it also presents some elements of Renaissance style, which followed the Gothic architectural trend.

The Silk Exchange is open Tuesday to Sunday year-round.

The Lonja opens every day at 10:00 am and closes at 7:00 pm during the week, and at 2:00 pm on Sunday.

You can have a look at the timetable in the relevant section of this article.

A regular ticket to the Lonja normally costs €2.00.

Various discounts (including Valencia Tourist Card discounts) can apply, so have a look at the various ticket options and their prices in the relevant section of this article.

Generally, you are not allowed to park a rental electric scooter in the Old Town, and the Silk Exchange is right in the middle of it.

You will thus need to park nearby, just outside the no-park zone that you will see on your app’s map.
