The Millennium Gate was designed by sculptor Eduardo Lastres. It is part of a series of four contemporary structures of various modern Spanish artists located along the Gran Vía de Alicante to commemorate the new millennium. It is a great figure in the shape of a door, supported by concrete columns and several steel figures that crown the sculpture on top.

In 1982, the World Cup took place in Spain, one of the venues was Alicante, and coinciding with that World Cup, a monument dedicated to golden proportions was inaugurated, an icosahedron by Juan S. Pérez i Parra's and José L. Frías Wamra's architecture studio, who worked in collaboration with the engineer Florentino Regalado. The icosahedron has twenty faces and resembles a soccer ball shaped like a truncated icosahedron. This means that each vertex is truncated and replaced by pentagons. Thus, the soccer ball is not a sphere but composed of polygons like this icosahedron which is made of triangles. This sculpture is based on the works of architect Richard Buckminster, famous for his works based on nature and its perfect proportions. Hence the allusive name of this monument to the golden proportions. After several renovations, it has finally found its place on a roundabout, in front of the Plaza Mar 2 shopping center, on Avenida de Denia.

The Torre del Conde or Torre Conde is one of the coastal surveillance towers that are distributed by the Huerta de Alicante, in the city of Alicante (Spain). It is located in the vicinity of the entity of Santa Faz, on the path of the Huerta, between the paths of the beach of San Juan and Benimagrell road. It was built in the sixteenth century to protect the Huerta de Alicante from the incursions of pirates, and is part of the group of towers that were protected in 1997 with the declaration of Cultural Interest. It is a property of private property, being its owner in 1999 Rafaela Gómez Bardina, who kept it in total abandonment. In addition to the tower, the ruins of the house and winery that were built adjoining the fortification, so typical in Alicante's huerta, are preserved. At present it is restored, but again abandoned. It is a rectangular building with a height of more than 7.5 meters, divided into three levels and a semi-basement. Its factory is of mapostería with reinforcement of ashlars in the corners. The interior is accessed through a semicircular arch, and the levels are practicable by means of a spiral staircase.

The tower is solid on the ground floor. To get inside it was necessary to climb a ladder that connected with the first floor. This improved the defence of the fortress in case of attack. From the first floor you can ascend to the second floor and from there to the cover terrace. The base is made of plastered masonry and the corners are made with ashlar reinforcement. The tower has several loopholes at different levels in all its facades. There is a chapel in the complex that preserves paintings with allegories to divine justice, the theological virtues and several cherubs. The residential building was articulated by a large hall that still preserves two arches. To the left, there is a store that was also used as a stable. The service units were located at the back of the ground floor. The main space was destined to the lords of the estate. There is a basement that preserves the cellar, a very important space where many wines were produced. At the rear of the house there was a large pool of water, pens and several oil mills. The estate was completed by extensive orchards with olive trees, carob trees, fig trees, almond trees and fruit trees, irrigated with water from the small irrigation canal of Ansaldo. This canal belonged to the network of irrigation canals of Alacant’s cropland. The estate is named after the Ansaldo family, native to Genoa, who first came to Alacant during the reconquest in the thirteenth century, at which time they received several possessions in Almoradí. In the fifteenth century, a part of the family emigrated to America and another to Cartagena (Murcia), attracted by the socioeconomic conditions of the city. In the seventeenth century the family settled permanently in Alacant where they carried out a commercial activity, especially wine exports. Currently, there are different proposals from the municipality to address the restoration and to make the most of Finca Ansaldo, as a space for cultural use, or as a centre of interpretation of the Torres de l’Horta (cropland Towers). The site has been declared an Asset of Cultural Interest.

It is a small square tower, consisting of ground floor and two floors, and topped by a terrace with cornice. On one of its sides there is a metal staircase that gives access to the roof, which suggests that the interior staircase is no longer preserved. Its low height and relatively large plant give it a voluminous, solid and noble appearance. It is devoid of battlements and ornaments.

The sculpture "La Mariposa" was part of the exhibition of Manolo Valdés in the City of Arts and Sciences of Valencia and in the Place Vendôme in Paris. "La Mariposa" is an example of Valdés' way of working because it has its origin in an image he saw in New York's Central Park of a butterfly fluttering over a woman's head. Valdés took that image to his particular style based on dialogue with the history of art (the face of sculpture is based on Matisse's painting) and the appropriation of objects from everyday life.

At the end of March 1939, thousands of Republicans chose exile in the port of Alicante when they embarked on the Stanbrook and other vessels, thus escaping the impending repression. Many more, around fiteen thousand, were captured by the Italian fascist troops and interned in different places around the city. That is the way the Spanish Civil War ended and how the dictatorship began.

The tower of La Mata is a coastal watchtower built on a beach in La Mata, municipality of Torrevieja, in the Valencian Community, Spain. It is located next to the Plaza del Embarcadero in the urban center of Torrevieja's hamlet of La Mata. A short distance away, there is a canal that provides saline water to the lagoon of the same name as the Lagunas de La Mata and Torrevieja Natural Park. Its plant is circular, with a trochoconic shape, a diameter of about five meters and is built with masonry. It has undergone various repairs throughout history. It is known that the tower of La Mata was built again on ancient remains in the sixteenth century, being rebuilt by the military engineer Juan Bautista Antonelli and one of the last repairs was made in 1982.
