Additional Information

Our escorted exploration of Madrid de los Austrias is a must-do in the city, captivating for the tales we will share and fascinating for the historic structures that we will encounter on the journey. We shall discuss “the rumors”, the vanished Church of Good Success and the clock with its well-known twelve strokes at the year’s end, a time when we consume a grape for every stroke, but… do you understand the origin of this custom? Be brave and join us, and we’ll explain. In addition, we’ll discuss Austrias’ traditions, celebrations, theater houses, what they used to wear, the inquisition or the commerce of that era. This stroll will allow you to experience and immerse in a unique way into a bygone Madrid that has bequeathed us a significant heritage. Come and discover it!
