Surroundings - Catedral de la Almudena
The cathedral of Santa María La Real de La Almudena is a spectacular mix of various architectural styles. The exterior is neo-Classical, while the interior is neo-Gothic and the Crypt neo-Romanic.
It has the honour of being the first Spanish cathedral to be consecrated by a Pope, and the first that Pope John Paul II consecrated outside Rome. The act took place on June 15th 1983, on his fourth visit to Spain.
It is located in the centre of the city. The main facade gives onto la Plaza de la Armería, facing the Palacio Real, and can be accessed from Calle Bailén or Calle Mayor. Unlike other cathedrals, which have East-West axes, it sits on a North-South axis, given that it was designed to form part of a whole with the Palacio Real.
Location: C/ Mayor, 90.
