10 Churches & Cathedrals in Madrid That You Shouldn't Miss

August 3, 2021 Marianna Hollaway

So many of Madrid’s buildings look like castles, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into a fairytale. Even City Hall is astounding, with its white pinnacles and neo-Gothic features. A self-guided architecture tour can begin by the great bear statue in the central Puerta del Sol. Wander by the fanciful Royal Palace before absorbing the natural beauty of Retiro Park, then visit one of the city’s many museums. You could happily cap off each day by nibbling on forkfuls of paella while sipping Spanish rioja.

Ermita De San Antonio De La Florida

Reviewed By 598marisap - Dallas, United States

This is a beautiful chapel built under the reign of Charles the 4th. It was built in 1798 and Goya painted the frescoes. The painting are excellent. They are almost expressionist paintings, what is called the black paintings by Goya. Entrance is free!

Real Oratorio Del Caballero de Gracia

Reviewed By Jydeoo - Lagos, Nigeria

This beautiful oratory is tucked away in central Madrid a few odd foot steps from Gran Via. It is a treasure to find right there in the middle of the city, just off the main pedestrian way that connects Gran Via to Puerta de Sol. It's interior is cozy, welcoming and beautiful.
