| Sumario: | [EN] Vaults, built either with lime-based concrete poured on a formwork or with thin tiles laid flat, constitute a characteristic element of Valencian architecture, both representative and vernacular. Lime-based oncrete vaults are documented from the beginning of the Middle Ages, with important examples of massive vaults built in the Islamic towers (11th-13th centuries) of the province of Valencia. The flat-tile vault, either used as a formwork or as an autonomous constructive element, also starts in medieval times, especially since the 14th century. In addition to the study of vaults in Islamic towers, this text analyses the specific case of Petrés Castle (Valencia) that offers an example of coexistence of the two construction systems, in a period stretching from the late 14th century until the 16th century. A comparison between the analysed cases reveals the richness of both this massive concrete vaults and flat-tile vaults in the Valencian territory, and their development throughout the Middle Ages. |
