A cultural walk at dusk through the Morería of Cocentaina

When the heat begins to fade and the evening light transforms the streets, the old Morería of Cocentaina reveals a history that remained silenced for centuries.

We invite you to walk through this historic space in a unique cultural experience, designed from archival documentation and specialist research to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Forced Conversions of the Valencian Mudéjars.

Accompanied by Belén Cuenca, one of the leading specialists on this historical period, you will discover the events that Professor Rafael Benítez called "The Summer of Fear".

Violence, persecution, blood, flight, resistance, courage and resilience marked one of the most dramatic episodes in Valencian history. Along this route you will come to know the settings where these events took place and the human stories that rarely appear in books.

More than a guided visit, it is an invitation to lift the veil of silence that still covers this chapter of our past and to understand how it transformed the history of the Kingdom of Valencia for ever.

The experience includes:

A guided cultural walk at dusk through the Morería of Cocentaina.
Historical interpretation based on documentary sources.
The company of a specialist in the Mudéjar and Morisco period.
Admission to the Archaeological Museum of Cocentaina.

An experience for those who wish to look history in the face and discover heritage from a rigorous, moving and profoundly human perspective.
