What to expect

Embark on a guided tour through Madrid de los Austrias, a historic neighbourhood brimming with emblematic streets and buildings.

Your journey begins at Plaza de Oriente, in front of the monument of Felipe IV. Here, your guide will introduce you to the sculpture and its surroundings, as well as the figure of Velázquez who will accompany you to your next stop - Plaza de Ramales. From there, you'll head towards Calle Mayor until you reach Plaza Mayor, the best place to learn about the Habsburg Monarchy, which reigned during the 16th and 17th centuries. Your guide will tell you about their customs, clothing, celebrations and festivities, and the feared Holy Inquisition. You'll also reach the political epicentre of those times, entering Plaza de la Villa, where the old Town Hall of Madrid was located.

This guided tour offers a chance to step back in time, gain insights into the Habsburg Dynasty, and uncover hidden gems and historic edifices that define this district.
