Visit to the Salzillo Museum, where visitors can enjoy the procession images
created by this skilled Murcian maker of images for the procession of the
morning of Good Friday, as well as his famous Nativity Scene, which marks the
start of one of the oldest traditions in Murcia.
Tour by two of its main arteries:
Platería and Trapería. We will stop to visit the Casino, built in 1847 and extendes
after 1902, and which contains decorations of great interest such as its dance
hall, the neo-nazarí (13th – 15th century Muslim dynasty in Granada) patio or
the library, as well as its façade decorated by magnificent sculptures.
Later we visit the most
important religious building in Murcia, the Cathedral, construction of which began at the end of the 14th
Century; this building contains gothic elements, such as La Puerta de los
Apóstoles, and La Capilla de los Vélez; renaissance architecture, showcased by
the Junterón Chapel; and baroque architecture, including most notably its
façade, conceived as a gigantic altarpiece by Jaime Bort, with its clever
conjugation of sculpture and architecture. Also noteworthy is its tower,
measuring 92 metres in height and built in different stages between the 16th
and 18th centuries
Finally, we propose enjoying
a meal at the restaurant of the Casino, (optional)
