Historical Madrid - Free Walking Tour
![Historical Madrid - Free Walking Tour Spain — #1](https://www.freetour.com/images/tours/28156/madrid-historique-01.jpg)
Overview of the tour in Madrid
We will visit well-known places like Plaza Mayor, Palacio Real, or Plaza de la Villa, as well as hidden gems.
My goal is to tell the meaning of these historic places and their connection with the city and Spain today, from the Islamic era and the beginning of "Christian" Madrid to the capital of an empire and then to the struggles of the "romantic Madrid" of the 18th and 19th centuries which ended in the tragedy of civil war and the regime of Franco and democracy.
I hope that at the end of the tour, you will be able to see significant places, appreciate the city's personality and people, and also get a glimpse of how Madrid and Spain evolved to become what it is today, with its wonders and shadows.
