Had a lovely tour around palace when visiting Gandia recently. Our registered guide was fantastic and told us all about the Borjas and the fascinating history of the palace. Well worth a visit when in the area.

Deep in Gandia’s old town this charming square is packed with bars, restaurants, cafes to sit down and enjoy a drink (or two) whilst the kids play in the playground. If you prefer, there are also benches around the square to watch the world go by and the children playing without spending money. We spent 3 hours there and our boys (8,5,5) had a lovely time. The bars open around 6pm and the restaurants around 8.30pm for dinner.
5. Insignia Collegiate Church of Gandia
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 24 reviews
The building that we contemplate today of the Insignia Collegiate Church of Gandia is a building that dates back to 1400. Linked to the Borja family, it received Baptism, Francisco de Borja y Aragón, IV Duque de Gandia, III General Purpose of the Society of Jesus , declared a saint by the Catholic Church, and appointed patron of the ducal city. In 1931 it was declared a National Monument, and in 1936 the Gandia City Council of that time, decreed to demolish it, demolishing the High Altar (today totally disappeared), and making all its works of art disappear, suffering up to three times various sieges and fires. Saving the building, little by little, part of the lost heritage has been recovered, although everything is new. Visiting the Collegiate Church is delving into the fascinating history of Gandia and the Borja family.
