Its name comes from the Arabic \u201cAl-Bayda\u201d, which means \u201cThe White\u201d, in all probably named for the colour of the land found throughout most of the administrative region. The city was named as such in 1906 by King Alfonso XIII and declared a tourist attraction in 2002, by virtue of its interesting historical, artistic and museum heritage.","galeria-poblacion":[68857,68858,68859,68860,68861],"descripcion_2":"<h4>Gastronom\u00eda:<\/h4>\r\nAlbaida\u2019s cuisine offers a wide variety of dishes, with pride of place taken by rice. Mention may be made of baked rice, rice with rabbit, rice stew, rice with chards, \u201csart\u00e9n de invierno\u201d and \u201csart\u00e9n de verano\u201d, crusty rice with egg, etc.\r\n\r\nThere are a series of local seasonal dishes that are only prepared when the corresponding ingredients are available on the market. Coinciding with the October and Christmas festivities, there are numerous sweets made with almonds, egg, flour, sugar and olive oil (\u201ccarquinyols\u201d, sweet potato cakes, \u201crollitos\u201d, almond cakes, \u201cpolvorones\u201d, almond nougat with egg yolk and walnut, coffee meringues, \u201cpastel de espuma\u201d, etc.). Some of these sweets are available in the village bakeries throughout the year, such as \u201cPasteler\u00eda Soler\u201d and \u201cPasteler\u00eda Esp\u00ed\u201d.\r\n\r\nThe main ingredient in autumn are mushrooms, which are incorporated into a wide variety of dishes (baked cakes, fried with garlic, rice with broth, etc.).\r\n\r\nTwo popular summer dishes are snails in sauce and tomato and pepper cake (delicious when made with fresh, local tomatoes and peppers). Also popular in summer are the ice-creams and iced products available from the local bakeries.\r\n\r\nIn January and February it is popular to dine out on casseroles with friends and workmates, whilst in Lent it is traditional to eat swordfish meatballs that are prepared on Good Friday, as well as traditional \u201cmonas\u201d and \u201chogazas\u201d. Quince, a product that was highly-appreciated by the Greeks and Romans, is also produced in Albaida. It is said to be good for those suffering from stomach ailments.\r\n<h4>Festivities:<\/h4>\r\nEach July, during the festivities of St. James, sees the staging of a fair in Albaida dating from 1387. Formerly dedicated to livestock, today it hosts attractions and cultural events such as plays, concerts, live music and sporting events.

They are followed by the traditional Moors and Christians festivities, held on 9th October, the most significant acts of which are \u201cL\u2019Entr\u00e1\u201d, a parade of the Moorish and Christian troops in their finery, and \u201cLas Embajadas\u201d, representations of the struggle between the troops for the keys of the town, held on 11th October.\r\n\r\nMention may also be made of the festivities held in honour of Saint Anthony the Abbott in January, and those in honour of Saint Dominic of L\u2019Aljorf in August.","color":"#9b861b","fiestas":null,"gastronomia":null,"mas_informacion":null,"turist-info":[{"nombre_oficina":"Tourist Info Albaida","datos_oficina":"Plaza del Pintor Segrelles 19, 46860\r\nTel\u00e9fono: 962390186 - 607201970 - 962900667\r\nEmail: <a href=\"mailto:albaida@touristinfo.net\">albaida@touristinfo.net<\/a> <a href=\"mailto:touristinfo_albaida@gva.es\">touristinfo_albaida@gva.es<\/a>\r\nWeb: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.albaida.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.albaida.org<\/a>\r\nSchedule:\r\nFrom Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 14:00 and from 16:00 to 19:00.

The original palace was built atop the Muslim walls dating from the 13th century, and included three of the ancient defence towers: \u201cPoniente\u201d, \u201cCentral\u201d and \u201cLa Torre Palacial\u201d.\r\n\r\nBuilt at the end of the 15th century (1471-1477), it has the appearance of a nobiliary residence. The main entrance to the walled enclosure, the town\u2019s gateway (built in 1460 from limestone, with a semicircular arch and an Arabic tile roof) is attached to the palace. The gateway\u2019s central voussoir still conserves the remains of the shield with arms of the first count of Albaida.\r\n\r\nIn the late 16th and early 17th centuries, the old 13th church was demolished due to lack of space. The new church that was to be built required a great deal of land and it was necessary to demolish part of the Palace and some houses.\r\n\r\nThe following years saw works and reforms carried out and a break with the secular isolation. The last notable work, carried out in the 19th nineteenth century, resulted in the current main entrance from the square. With the extracted material, the base of the towers was reinforced. The palace\u2019s fa\u00e7ades bear heraldic shields from different periods.\r\n\r\nIn the interior the rooms are decorated with colourful Baroque paintings by the local painter Bertomeu Albert (late 17th century).

Albaida\u2019s International Puppet Museum has been installed in the renovated part of the palace, and is accessible from the interior.\r\n\r\nThe palace also houses a large-scale model (scale 1:100, 20 m2) of a detailed and well-documented reconstruction of the 15th century town of Albaida.","imagen_seccion_destacados":""},{"titulo_seccion_destacados":"Archpriest Church of Saint Mary","texto_seccion_destacados":"A spectacular religious building in the Valencian gothic style, built between 1592 and 1621, and restored in 1830.

The current church was built to replace the old church of Our Lady of the Assumption, constructed in the 13th century. It has a single nave with chapels between buttresses. There is a set of oil paintings by J. Segrelles in the 12th century high altar.

The house reveals to the visitor the way of life and the character of the painter Jos\u00e9 Segrelles (1885-1969). We are drawn into his universe: how did he paint? What did he do in his daily life? What did he read? What music did he listen to? There are more than 150 of the painter\u2019s original work in the house, including illustrations for novels written by Vicente Blasco Iba\u00f1ez, for the tales of the Arabian Nights, for Don Quixote, and his posthumous work, \u201cEl Pentecost\u00e9s\u201d.
