About La Creu Coberta
Where to stay in La Creu Coberta
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Industry set the street pattern here, and a bed in La Creu Coberta sits among the Jabones Catalá factory, the Talleres Devís-Noguera-Macosa factory and the workshops along Joaquín Navarro street. The old cross names the barrio. A room near carrer Sant Vicent Màrtir keeps the covered cross and the Església del Crist de la Providència close, while the Artillery Barracks and the Air Raid Shelter at Artillery Park give the barrio its other face.
About La Creu Coberta
What are the main landmarks in La Creu Coberta?
Factories dominate the register. The Jabones Catalá factory, the Talleres Devís-Noguera-Macosa factory and the Hierros Hijos de Miguel Mateu Factory head a list that carries on along Primer de Maig avenue and Joaquín Navarro street, where more adjoining industrial buildings are entered. Military entries follow.
The Artillery Barracks and the Air Raid Shelter at Artillery Park sit on the same page of the record, with the Gasolinera La Cruz adding a roadside entry of its own. Two religious items close the list: the covered cross on carrer Sant Vicent Màrtir and the Església del Crist de la Providència.
What is the history of La Creu Coberta?
Two eras sit on one register. The covered cross on carrer Sant Vicent Màrtir and the Església del Crist de la Providència stand for the older La Creu Coberta, while the Hierros Hijos de Miguel Mateu Factory, the Jabones Catalá factory and the Talleres Devís-Noguera-Macosa factory record the working one. War is on the list too.
The Air Raid Shelter at Artillery Park and the Artillery Barracks record a military use of this ground that the sources set down without a date. La Cruz Cubierta is the Spanish form, and no charter year is recorded for the barrio inside Valencia or the Comunitat Valenciana.
