Museu del Corpus i Casa de les Roques

The horse-drawn carriages used in the Corpus Christi parades, known as ''roques'' (Spanish: rocas, or 'rocks'), have been stored in this building since the mid-15th century. Eleven carriages are on display, the oldest of which was built between 1373 and 1392. Other items exhibited are costumes and h

istoric documents, as well as a 25-minute video about the processions (in Spanish).
