Het licht van Sint Nicolaas
Beschrijving
Het licht van Sint-Niklaas is een geheel van drie interventies die door middel van verschillende artistieke talen de belangrijkste gebeurtenissen in de geschiedenis van de parochie herbekijken, een nieuwe visie projecteren op de emblematische barokke koepel en onze beschermheilige eren. De interactieve tentoonstelling "De hartslag van Sint Nicolaas" volgt de geschiedenis van het gebouw en de plaats waar het staat sinds de tijd van Romeinse Valentia. De audiovisuele installatie "Lux ex Oriente" is een creatieve interpretatie van de symbolen die de iconische figuur van Sint Nicolaas kenmerken. De meeslepende projectie "Hommage aan Schoonheid" is een frisse, respectvolle en gedocumenteerde blik die het licht, de muziek en de technologie van de 21e eeuw in dienst stelt van de tijdloze en inspirerende schoonheid van de barokke versiering van de Sixtijnse Kapel van Valencia. De projecties worden elk uur getoond vanaf 11:00. Bezoek is toegestaan tot 1 uur voor sluitingstijd van de kerk.

This was a relatively expensive Valencian activity at €18 but was an unusual way to see a church and to really take in the decoration. We enjoyed the light show although it was unclear how you could see the other two - they were shown on the map in the guide at the church but staff said they were not available. Despite multiple fans in the chapels the church got very hot so I would recommend visitors bring their own fans! We bought tickets at the ticket office on the day and there were no queues, although I suspect we would have saved a couple of euros each by purchasing the tickets online where they are listed at €16!
For me, it is a jewel that should be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site without question. It already appears written in the Llibre del Repartiment in 1239; it is one of the oldest churches in Valencia and has undergone modifications over the centuries. It has impressive Baroque ornamentation attributed to Perez Castiel between 1690 and 1693. You can attend the light of Saint Nicholas, an impressive immersive experience. Attending this church with an official visit and guide, ticket prices are high and there is a long wait, better to pay a little more. For me, an impressive experience of this Valencian Sistine Chapel. Thanks also to the Hortensia Herrero Foundation, this wonder could be restored.
The light show is not narrated. It reminded me of one of those adult coloring books. It was HOT-- it was July.
Takes about an hour. Really enjoyed it. It is the most beautiful church in a small space. The guided tour came with it after the show. A must see and a hidden gem. Seriously. We almost missed the entrance lol.
The experience was extraordinary. The light show was awesome and the art, paintings are just mind boggling.
If you are in Valencia you MUST have seen this! That's all I'm going to say about that because you have to find out for yourself.
The ticket is very expensive for a church, an exaggeration. The church is beautiful and the video mapping show is very beautiful I think it's worth it, but still very expensive
If you are going to Valencia for a weekend or you are passing through it while you are on a tour of Spain, you should definitely go and visit this church located in the Carmen district a few hundred meters from the Cathedral. Said that the whole church is worthy of attention, the vault is remarkable. We highly recommend the show which is repeated several times a day of the light games on the paintings; it lasts about 15 minutes and is beautiful. Inexplicably, in the "Lonely Planet pocket" dedicated to Valencia it is not mentioned at all.
Very beautiful ceiling in a church that far surpasses the actual cathedral for interest and beauty. Not sure how much the light show added to it. Some of the lights are very beautiful and some of the interesting bits are highlighted, but you'll get a lot from it even without the lights. Some tips... If you have tickets you can skip the queue. This isn't obvious, we had to ask. And don't sit down for the light show, stand at the back for the best view and the least strain on your neck.
Very nice church, at 17 we also witnessed the light show that lasts 15 minutes. The ticket price includes an audio guide.
