Visualization and Inclusive Multimodal Resources for the Recovery of the Golden Hall of Earl’s Palace in Oliva

The Earl's Palace of Oliva was one of the finest examples of late Gothic and early Renaissance architecture in the Valencian region. Inside, it featured some of the period's most exquisite curtain doorways, handcrafted from gypsum. Despite being designated a Cultural Heritage Site (CHS) in 1920, the palace was demolished in the 1950s and replaced with residential buildings. This study presents research aimed at digitally reconstructing one of its Golden Halls (Hall Nr. 12), based on graphic documentation created by Danish architects Egil Fischer and Vilhelm Lauritzen between 1917 and 1920. These documents, currently preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Oliva (AMO), provide valuable insights into the hall’s original design. By utilizing Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) techniques, this work allows us to visualize how the hall appeared in the early 16th century when it was remodeled by Serafín de Centelles. Furthermore, to enhance accessibility for visually impaired individuals, the study introduces tools designed for the haptic interpretation of this historical space.
