Description of Guided tour of the Madrid of Letters

We want to discover the Letters quarter of Madrid, an area with a lot of history, where some of the biggest celebrities of the Spanish literary world have lived.

This area was formerly known as "el Parnasillo". In this neighborhood lived from artists to prostitutes and criminals, a whole social amalgam, which gave the Barrio de las Letras its unique style.

During the Golden Age, great authors such as:

  • Cervantes.
  • Lope de Vega.
  • Quevedo.
  • Echegaray.
  • Moratin.
  • And more.

Along the way, while we walk through the areas where their homes were, we will tell you anecdotes that happened to these people and other exponents of the Golden Age.

Discover one of the neighborhoods with the most history and charm in all of Madrid.

    Despite the online booking process, it was worth it. The guide was 10. A very interesting visit and very well explained. When we return to Madrid we will try to make another of your visits.

    Interesting, entertaining, well documented and very well guided by Edurne.

    I only miss reduced rates for children, the unemployed, teachers, as most cultural activities tend to do.
