Description

Hospital the Sant Marc was an institution for the poor and travellers. It maintained its activity for over 600 years, from the XIV century through to 1973. The founding of this institution is attributed to the Duke Alfons el Vell. The" Sala de Hombres" is of note. The first Valenciano gothic building, it has pointed arches and the ribbed arches  in the "Sala de Mujeres" are architecutual jewels, and are a must visit.
At present, the Hospital Sant Marc, houses the Archaelogical Museum of Gandia or MAG@, which has a permenant exposition that explains and shows the great archaeological importance of La Safor region, covering the entire period of prehistory in a very didactic way. In addition, the MAG@ Museum, also hosts (since March 28, 2015), the Santa Clara Museum, with some of the important art collection that the Franciscan nuns have preserved over the centuries.
