Description

Discover the history of the Kings of Spain by visiting Madrid de los Austrias – the city's historic heart – and the Royal Palace.

As you wander down the streets of Madrid's old town, you will notice aspects of Austrian architecture and culture that have survived from the 16th century to this day. Make the most of the atmosphere by enjoying a refreshment in the one of the area's renowned cafés during a break in the tour.

After your guided tour of the old town, you'll go to the Royal Palace of Madrid to learn more about the lives and times of the Spanish monarchy.

Set on the site of the old Royal Alcazar, the 18th-century palace was built in the Baroque and Renaissance style.

One of the most beautiful and best preserved palaces in Europe, this is the perfect setting for learning about the Austrian Habsburg dynasty that once ruled Spain.
