Bernabéu Museum and Tour: what you actually see
The core experience
Yes, the Santiago Bernabéu has a dedicated Real Madrid Museum integrated into the Tour Bernabéu. The standard route features the museum's interactive timeline and trophy galleries plus an interior panoramic view of the stadium; the visit typically ends at the official Bernabéu store. As of June 2024, all fifteen European Cups are on display for photos inside the museum.
What can change on the day
Routes may be altered for events or safety, and on match days the experience is reduced to the museum and a panoramic stadium view with earlier closing before kick‑off. Expect stairs in sections of the route.
Getting there, stress‑free
The stadium sits on Avenida de Concha Espina with easy public transport. Metro Line 10 stops at Santiago Bernabéu and the nearest Cercanías hub is Nuevos Ministerios, both indicated on the official "Plan your visit."
