The Valencia City Council is finalizing the conversion of the historic Casa dels Bous into the Museu de la Mar, which is scheduled to open to the public in September. The project, funded by EU Next Generation funds, involves the museumographic adaptation of the site and the restoration of archaeological remains and materials from a former naval carpentry workshop.

Located in the El Cabanyal-El Canyamelar neighborhood, the museum will showcase the maritime heritage of the area, including the origins of bull fishing, traditional vessels, net-dyeing, and the evolution of the Port of Valencia. The Casa dels Bous, built between 1877 and 1895, originally served the Marina Auxiliante society to house oxen used for launching and docking boats.
