The Torrent City Council has organized the Modernist Route, a new proposal from the “Rutes del Temps” cycle, which will take place on April 25 at 7:00 PM to showcase the historical and cultural heritage of the municipality.

This initiative aims to bring the town's modernist legacy closer through an interpretive tour. The activity will visit various emblematic modernist spaces in Torrent, a key period in the urban and social evolution of the city between the late 19th century and early 20th century.
The route will begin at the Museu Comarcal de l’Horta Sud and continue through various points in the urban center related to this architectural style. The tour will be guided by researcher Tomás Roselló and will feature the collaboration of the GTI Grup de Teatre.
This theater group will provide brief theatrical performances that will recreate typical characters and scenes from the era, facilitating a living connection between the past and the present for participants.

"We want Torrent's heritage not to be something static, but a living experience that citizens can explore, understand, and enjoy. This route allows us to look at our streets with different eyes and recognize the importance of our past in the current identity of the municipality."

the Culture Councilor
The Culture Councilor has highlighted the importance of this initiative to foster a dynamic and participatory approach to local heritage. He added that “‘Rutes del Temps’ has consolidated itself as a project that awakens the interest of very diverse audiences, and we continue to work to offer attractive proposals that combine history, culture, and participation.”
The activity is free and is part of the municipality's cultural program. Registrations are now open and will be assigned until all available spots are filled.
