Over
Korte feiten: Once Madrid's main town hall, it features medieval architecture rarely seen in the city. The square hosts some of the oldest buildings in Madrid, including the 15th-century Casa de Cisneros.
Hoogtepunten: Stone carvings on the buildings depict historical figures and Madrid's old symbols, giving you a glimpse of the city's past life. The square often holds medieval reenactments and market fairs that bring the 1400s to life during weekends.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes suitable for cobblestones and uneven surfaces.
- Capture photos facing Casa de Cisneros for the best detailed stonework shots.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer quieter visits, as the reenactments draw local crowds.
- Stop by expert-run stalls during medieval markets to try traditional foods and crafts.
