Civil War Anti-aircraft Shelters

Civil War Anti-aircraft Shelters

The objects and text explanations displayed in the different rooms intend to show visitors the historical and social context that surrounded the construction and use of these bomb shelters in Alicante during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). You can find several preserved shelters throughout Alicante: 1. Plaza de Séneca; 2. Plaza Dr. Balmis; 3. Les Cigarreres cultural centre (former Fábrica de Tabacos); 4. Castillo de San Fernando (from Calle Padre Mariana); 5. Marqués de Molins; 6. Plaza Músico Óscar Tordera Iñesta; 7. Santa Faz monastery.

Old Town Quarter

Old Town Quarter

Back in the old town quarter, we recommend a route that includes a visit to the San Nicholas Co-cathedral dating from the 17th century. The cloisters, however, are from the 15th-century (Herrerian Renaissance style). The Town Hall building is an 18th-century Baroque building. The Santa María Basilica, a gothic structure based on the mosque from the ancient town, dates from the 14th and 16th centuries and was completed with Baroque and Rococo finishes in the 18th century.

TuriBús

For those who want to have a general idea of Alicante, or for those with less time, Alicante offers a special service — the TuriBús — a bus through the city with 10 interesting stops for holidaymakers. The sights and sites are explained in Spanish, Valencian, English, French, German and Italian.

Beaches

Beaches

Alicante has a wide variety of beaches, from fine sand to rocky ones. Most of them are proud to hold the Blue Flag award. El Postiguet is the Alicante beach par excellence! Located in the very heart of the city. It’s a long sandy beach and is close to all types of services. The San Juan beach is the most famous beach, not only because it is the longest, but also because of the quality and cleanliness of its waters.

Hogueras Museum

Hogueras Museum

Museo de Fogueres, also known as Museo De Las Hogueras and Bonfire museum, is dedicated to the most popular “fiesta” in Alicante. It shows the "ninots", or wooden statues that have been "saved" — i.e., not burned every year — in a video room showing the best of this "fiesta", photographs, costumes, etc. This museum is especially nice for families with children!
