Tribunal de las Aguas de la Vega de Valencia

Water Court

The "Water Court of the Plain of Valencia", better known by its shortened name of "Water Court" is without any doubt, the oldest existing justice institution in Europe.
A weekly session

His weekly meeting every Thursday of the year, on the right side of Gothic Door of the Apostles of the Cathedral of Valencia, is an unavoidable apppointment for tourists, school visits, pedestrians who congregate around waiting for that neighboring bells from the "Micalet" stoke the twelve hours to watch their session.
A model of justice

We must not get to the erroneous conclusion that it is a folk and ineffective institution that tradition has bequeathed us: therefore , after that simplicity and simplicity of operation, devoid of complicated protocols and legal formulas, a model of justice that farmer from the plain has been respected in an ancient institution that has survived all legislative reforms.
Millennial institution

Our Millennial institution remains appreciated for its uniqueness and perfect operation constituting today, without a doubt, one of the most precious cultural heritage of Valencia.

For these and other reasons the Tribunal de las Aguas de la Vega de Valencia was recognized Intangible Cultural Heritage by the UNESCO in 2009.
