The Poet House (Almeria)
The intellectual narrator and essayist Jose Angel Valente was one of the most renowned poets during the second half of the 20th century. He lived in large cities such as Madrid, Paris, Oxford and Geneva, but ended up choosing Almeria as his place of residence during the last fifteen years of his life, since he felt what he defined in his own words as "the irrevocable call of light".
The Poet House, through its different spaces and thematic areas, guides visitors to take a tour of the life and work of Jose Angel Valente. Its main purpose is to highlight the importance of contemporary Spanish letters and their relationship with the other arts developed in the country.
