Guided tour of the Nativity Scenes of Madrid at Christmas 2 h

The Christmas spirit takes hold of us each time before and in a thousand different ways; but without a doubt, if there is a characteristic element of the most traditional Christmas, that is the Nativity Scene. We did not want to escape from this emblematic way of starting the most anticipated winter season by so many and we have created a guided route through the most special Nativity Scenes in the city of Madrid . A guided tour of some 2 hours in the company of our historian and guide who will take you to discover the authentic Madrid Christmas in a very special way.

During this guided route through the Nativity Scenes of the capital, we will make as many stops as possible to adjust to the stipulated time, although it will always depend on the queue to access them , since regardless, you have to wait for access.

Our expert will tell you in detail the history of this essential element in any home in our country, a tradition that Saint Francis of Assisi began when he performed the first representation of the birth of Jesus, in Greccio, and Saint Clare later spread it throughout the Italian convents. Although its representation in homes is much later, in the reign of Carlos III (exporting the customs of Naples) because previously, between the 13th and 14th centuries, it could only be seen in churches, monasteries and convents.

But this will only be part of what our guide and historian will tell you about the Nativity scenes that we visit. A perfect Christmas plan for all the members of the family and continue the day as you wish, but always, soaking up the Christmas halo that Madrid embraces during this time of year.
