Welcome to the oldest Madrid !

We'll gradually uncover the city's history through anecdotes and legends that don't appear in history books. We'll delve into the ancient streets of a city steeped in curiosity and discuss its key figures.

The inbreeding of the Austrians , ancient hygiene and medicine, the miracles of San Isidro , the macabre origin of certain sayings or the most famous thief in Madrid will be some of the main topics we will touch on in our tour.

We'll cross the city of Madrid toward the old city prison and Plaza Mayor, the site of official events, celebrations, and torture, closely associated with the Inquisition and its famous Black Legend. Luis Candelas , the murderous frenzy of Madrid's residents in the 19th century and the oldest restaurant in the world, will await us afterward.

We'll talk about the origins of Madrid's gastronomy, the history of jealousy, blood, betrayal, and death of the Austrians, and the legends of Charles V. Finally, we'll talk about the story of the curious Almudena and her Virgin, the tragic end of the architect of the Royal Palace , and the miracle of the blood of Saint Pantaleon.
