House and Engine of Tancat de l‘Alcatí
The House and Engine of Tancat de l‘Alcatí, which was originally steam-powered, with a 15-meter high chimney, was built in 1900 by thirty communal owners on an area of 33 hectares dedicated to rice cultivation.The space also has an old house of the engine driver, the person who was in charge of maintaining the engine that drains water from the rice fields.Currently, the engine continues to fulfill its purpose, it is electric and manages about 60,000 liters per minute.
Barraca Fang i Pallús
Located in one of the most extraordinary spots to watch the sunset from El Palmar.Although its origin dates back to the last third of the 20th century, its shape, proportion, and distribution are like those of traditional barracas.It has a rectangular floor plan in a model called “passadís”. This is an internal corridor that provides access to the different rooms and kitchen. The interior space is a bit more modern than the old barracas, as are the doors and windows, which are also larger to gain more light inside.
Barraca del Tío Aranda
In the heart of El Palmar is the oldest barraca in the Valencian Community, dating from the late 18th century, and represents the genuine barraca par excellence, so scarce today in our geography. This historic property has been rehabilitated according to traditional uses and customs and with the use of sustainable materials.The barraca has a rectangular plan, without attached constructions, and with an area of 73.71m2; the facade is 5.90 meters wide and 12.60 meters long in depth. Its height is 5.15 meters.The Barraca del Tío Aranda has the same level of protection as La Lonja de la Seda and La Cathedral of Santa María in the city of Valencia.
