About The Event
We will visit the Lladro workshops in Tavernes Blanques, just 15 minutes from the center of Valencia.
On this tour we will see how the artisans create their pieces. We will also enjoy a visit to the Lladró Museum & Boutique, where you can see all their current collections. The museum also has dozens of paintings from the Spanish and Valencian baroque and renaissance times to admire.
Lladró was founded in 1953 and is the success story of an iconic Spanish brand: a world leader in luxurious artistic porcelain entirely made by hand, and with traditional tools in Valencia. The three brothers, Juan, José and Vicente Lladró always shared a passion for porcelain. In 1953 they started to make their first pieces at their own home in Almàssera. When their collection of porcelain pieces no longer fit in their house they moved to a warehouse in the neighboring town of Tavernes Blanques, which is still the headquarters of the company today.
