Description

The bell tower presents, after the restoration, a serious problem that has not been solved: it is the floor of the bell room, which was raised to put under the mechanical clock, and that practically reaches the level of the windows, putting the bell ringers in serious danger and limiting to two people the visits when it is rung.

Baroque tower of square plan, lost its typical baroque top and cupulino in the civil war, since it was cracked to place anti-aircraft cannons. After the war it was never raised again, and it appeared unfinished and strange, in a crowning of battlements as if it were a castle.
Between 2004 and 2005, on the initiative of the Massanassa Bell Ringers Alloy, with the full support of the rector and with the financial support of the Diputación de Valencia, the bell tower has recovered its original volume.
On 17/04/2005, in a solemn act presided by the Episcopal Vicar and the President of the Diputación de Valencia, the restoration works were inaugurated.
