La Nau is a historical building that has served as Universitat de València's headquarters since its foundation. Built in 1497 and remodeled in 1830, it's still an excellent example of neoclassical architecture. Today, the university uses this building to host cultural events, such as exhibitions, theater, and music. The historical library is also worth a visit, as it has some of the oldest printed books in Spain. Admission is free.
