- Plaza de Santa Ana - Located in the Cortes neighborhood within Madrid’s Centro district, the Plaza de Santa Ana is a public square dating back to 1810. Over the years, it has experienced various urbanization changes that have altered its appearance in different ways.
- Royal Palace of Madrid - Currently, the Royal Palace is used solely for receptions, ceremonies, and official events, as the Spanish monarchs reside in the Palacio de la Zarzuela. Also known as the Palacio de Oriente, the Royal Palace’s construction began in 1738 and took seventeen years to complete. Shortly after its completion in 1764, Carlos III made it his regular residence. The palace stands on the site of the former Palace of the Austrias, which was destroyed by a fire on Christmas Eve in 1734.
- Museo de la Catedral de la Almudena - The Almudena Cathedral is Madrid’s most significant religious building. It was consecrated by Pope John Paul II on June 15, 1993, becoming the first cathedral outside Rome to be consecrated. The Almudena Cathedral Museum houses numerous artifacts that narrate the history of the Madrid diocese. Visitors can explore twelve rooms featuring mosaics, episcopal shields, and ornaments.
- Jardines de Sabatini - The Sabatini Gardens are situated in front of the north facade of the Royal Palace of Madrid, between Bailén Street and the San Vicente slope, covering an area of 2.66 hectares.
- Templo de Debod - The Debod Temple is an ancient Egyptian structure now located in Madrid, Spain. It is situated west of the Plaza de España, near the Paseo del Pintor Rosales, on a hill where the Mountain Barracks once stood.
- Plaza Mayor - This porticoed square is the heart of Madrid de los Austrias, the old town, and serves as an ideal starting point for exploring one of the city’s most charming neighborhoods. Before Madrid became a city of grand avenues and boulevards, its map consisted of small streets and passages, reminiscent of times of swordsmen and rogues. The Plaza Mayor was established on the site of the old Plaza del Arrabal, where the town’s most popular market was located at the end of the 15th century when Philip II’s court moved to Madrid. In 1617, architect Juan Gómez de Mora was tasked with creating uniformity among the buildings in this area, which has hosted popular celebrations, bullfights, beatifications, coronations, and even some faith-related events for centuries.
- Mercado San Miguel - A covered market dating back to around 1916, offering local food, delicacies, and events in an elegant setting.
- Real Basilica de San Francisco el Grande - Officially known as the Basilica of Our Lady of the Angels, this Catholic church is located in Madrid’s Palacio neighborhood, within the historic center of Spain’s capital.
- Casa de Cervantes - The former residence of the renowned writer Miguel de Cervantes, author of “Don Quijote,” offering guided tours.
- Casa Museo Lope de Vega - Situated on Cervantes Street, the House of Lope de Vega was built in the 16th century. One of the great writers of the Spanish Golden Age, Lope de Vega acquired the property in 1610 and lived there until his death in 1635.
- Plaza de las Cortes - The Palace of the Spanish Courts was constructed on the site of the former convent of the Holy Spirit, which served as the seat of Congress between 1834 and 1841. The main facade features a staircase leading to a neoclassical portico with six imposing Corinthian columns, topped by a triangular pediment adorned with reliefs by Ponciano Ponzano. The iconic lions flanking the entrance were sculpted by the same artist and cast from iron taken from cannons captured during the African war. The chiseled bronze door beneath the pediment opens only on special occasions. Among the building’s symmetrical rooms, the well-known Session room stands out, along with the library and the Conference room, also known as the “lost steps” room.
- Neptune Fountain - The Neptune Fountain is a neoclassical fountain located at the center of the roundabout that bears its name, within the Plaza de Cánovas del Castillo in Madrid, Spain. Proposed in 1777, its construction began in 1782 and was completed in 1786.
- Museo Nacional del Prado - Renowned for its extensive collection of European paintings from the 16th to the 19th centuries, art historian and hispanist Jonathan Brown describes it as “the most important museum in the world for European painting.” The museum’s main attraction is its vast collection of works by Velázquez, El Greco, Goya (the most represented artist in the museum), Tiziano, Rubens, and El Bosco, among others. It also features significant collections by artists such as Murillo, Ribera, Zurbarán, Fra Angelico, Rafael, Veronese, Tintoretto, Patinir, Antonio Moro, Van Dyck, and Poussin.
- Jeronimos - Commonly known as “Los Jerónimos,” its official name is the Parish Church of San Jerónimo el Real. Located next to the Prado Museum, it is a late Gothic structure with Renaissance influences from the early 16th century. Although little remains of the original building, it has been remodeled and restored numerous times over the centuries. Its name reflects its special connection with the Spanish monarchy, having been built by order of the Catholic Monarchs and serving as a spiritual retreat for several monarchs throughout history. It has also been the site of royal investitures in the absence of a cathedral, and the wedding of Alfonso XIII took place here, for which the grand staircase leading to its entrance was constructed in 1906.
- Puerta de Alcala - This monumental gate, commissioned by Carlos III to replace an earlier one from the 16th century, was inaugurated in 1778. Designed by Francesco Sabatini, it is a neoclassical triumphal arch made of granite, the first of its kind built in Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire, preceding others like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris or the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. Unlike the Puerta de Toledo or San Vicente, it features five openings instead of the usual three. The two facades display different decorations, with the inner face (initially facing the city) being simpler and featuring the four virtues: Prudence, Justice, Temperance, and Fortitude. The exterior, adorned with the royal shield and more elaborate decorations, was what greeted those entering Madrid. It is named for its location near the road leading to Alcalá de Henares.
- Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas - Las Ventas bullring in Madrid is the largest bullfighting arena in Spain, accommodating 23,798 spectators. It ranks as the third-largest bullring in the world, following those in Mexico and Valencia (Venezuela), and is the second-largest in terms of ring diameter at 61.5 meters, after Ronda.

- Plaza Colon - The Christopher Columbus monument stands at the center of the square, surrounded by a fountain. This neo-Gothic white marble sculpture, along with its impressive stone-carved pedestal, measures 17 meters and was created in 1885 by Jerónimo Suñol to commemorate the wedding of Alfonso XII and María de las Mercedes de Orleans. The square also features the Gardens of Discovery, a park opened in 1970, showcasing various sculptures, including a monument dedicated to the discovery of America. Beneath the square is the Cultural Center of the Villa Fernán Gómez.
- Biblioteca Nacional de Espana - The National Library of Spain (BNE) is an autonomous institution responsible for preserving Spain’s bibliographic and documentary heritage. It collects, catalogs, and conserves bibliographic materials, holding around thirty million publications produced in Spain since the 18th century, including books, magazines, maps, prints, drawings, scores, and brochures.
- Cibeles Fountain - Surrounded by the Palacio de Buenavista (Army Headquarters), Palacio de Linares (Casa de América), Palacio de Comunicaciones (formerly the Post Office headquarters and now Madrid’s City Hall), and the Bank of Spain, the fountain depicts the Roman goddess Cibeles, symbolizing the earth, agriculture, and fertility, riding a chariot pulled by two lions, the mythological figures Hipomenes and Atalanta. The goddess and lions are carved in marble, while the rest is in stone. The sculpture of the goddess is by Francisco Gutiérrez, and the lions were sculpted by French artist Roberto Michel. The goddess is an icon for Real Madrid football fans, as the team’s victories, as well as those of the Spanish national soccer team, are celebrated here.
- Banco de Espana - A decorative masterpiece, awarded at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in 1884. The building was constructed to provide the National Bank with a headquarters befitting its role, including the sole issuance of coins and bills for all of Spain. The building’s interior is accessible only to groups from educational institutions and universities, and occasionally to non-profit cultural and associative entities.
