Highlights
  • Galeria de las Colecciones Reales - On this visit we will start from floor -1 with the lavish, excellent and regal collection from the reign of the Austrians, in which all types of decorative objects are preserved such as votive crowns, tapestries, golden columns, or even a carriage from the reign of the Austrians! Charles II!

We will try to go in chronological order so that the visit is much more enjoyable for the traveler. In this “oasis” of history from the modern age we will also see some remains of the Islamic origin of Madrid that have been so well cared for and maintained by the National Heritage. On floor -2 we will continue through the Bourbon dynasty in which we will see more elaborate decorative art due to their good taste for Rococo or Chinoiserie art. Here there is a greater variety of objects than in -1 that will leave travelers in love with the place.

On the -3 floor we have the temporary exhibitions that the Gallery will let travelers see during a certain period of time, at the moment there is an exquisite collection of historic cars.

Great find! - Great discovery to do this tour with Rubén; I did the one at the Prado Museum with it and it did not disappoint at all. A large number of royal objects in a very special place and with a wonderful guide like Rubén.
