These modernist outposts were inspired by the artistic language of The hallmark of the Valencian Regional Exhibition of 1909 and is part of the architectural heritage of this movement so present in this city. The metal port structures have suffered numerous damages since their construction, the most impactful being that which occurred during the Civil War since they were bombed by Italian aviation.< /strong> Today, they are considered elements of enormous importance in the history of the city and have been declared as Assets of Local Relevance. The sheds have undergone several restoration and rehabilitation processes - the last one between 2017 and 2018 carried out by the Generalitat Valenciana - with the aim of serving as a space where all types of cultural activities can be carried out.< /span>

The sheds of the Port of Valencia are three industrial buildings made of iron built between 1911 and 1914 by engineers José María Fuster and Fausto Élio Vidarte in the modernist style prevailing in their time with the aim of promoting and activating the commercial activity of the fishing port and promoting exports of products. /strong> Initially there were six sheds built by order of the Ministry of Development but currently only three remain, shed numbers 2, 4 and 5.
