Wall

The interior of Españolé houses some of the best preserved remains of the old Arab wall that surrounded the city in the 11th century: part of the Puerta de la Culebra, which was believed to have disappeared, was recovered and integrated into the building along with arches and fragments of the defensive canvas.

Palace

Our school was originally a Gothic palace from the end of the 13th century, which over the years has undergone successive restorations and renovations to its current state. We can still enjoy the central patio, the arches and stairs and in the office area, a beautifully polychrome coffered ceiling more than 7 centuries old.

School

Today, our students live in Españolé with fragments of the history of Valencia and enjoy a unique space where laughter, enthusiasm and desire to learn are shared. Our school is a meeting place between different cultures and a welcoming space that our students feel as their own.

Our facilities

The ancient remains of the Arab wall run through the school and coexist with classrooms and new spaces specially designed according to our vision of what a language school should be like in the 21st century: a combination of history and modernity.

The classrooms

Designed to make the most of your classes, our classrooms are fully equipped with everything you need for your learning. They are spacious and bright so that each student has a comfortable work space.

Patios and terraces

To enjoy the sun, to rest between classes or to meet other students … the patios and terraces are recreational spaces prepared for moments of relaxation and fun.

Students’ areas

You have at your disposal rooms and common areas where the life of the school unfolds. Take advantage of every moment to share experiences and practice your Spanish with other students like you.
