Standard entry runs about 4 EUR for adults with reduced rates for students and seniors. Ask about free admission days on the official calendar and weekend guided tours that cost just a few euros more.

Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Water from the Eresma river once drove the press machinery here, making it one of the earliest mechanized mints in Europe. Philip II of Spain commissioned the building from Juan de Herrera, the same architect behind the sprawling monastery at El Escorial.
Destacados: At fixed times each day, the reconstructed wooden wheels and hammers actually clank to life, churning with surprising force as river water pours through the old channels. Watch the whole coin-making sequence unfold across several floors, from blank discs to stamped coins powered by hydraulics alone, no electricity involved.
Consejos de expertos
- Arrive 15 minutes before the machinery demonstration to claim a viewing spot by the upper-floor glass.
- Wear sturdy shoes, the original stone stairways get slippery from humidity.
- Cross the Eresma bridge afterward for a classic exterior shot of the long riverside building against the ravine.
- Join the English-language guided tour on weekends for the full story of how the hydraulic system worked.
