Tour description

Islamic medieval Madrid is not just a tour , it is a journey through time from the city's medieval origins to the arrival of the Castilian king Alfonso VI . More than one surprise awaits you along the way, we already anticipate it.

Our archaeologist will guide you through medieval Islamic Madrid, transporting you to the mid-9th century, to the origins of the city of Madrid.

You will understand the reason for his choice , and for this we will take into account the social and political situation that Al-Andalus was going through at that time, and that we will tell you about, of course.


Although there are not many preserved remains, we assure you that we will stop at all those archaeological remains of the time. Like, for example, the incredible founding Islamic wall of Madrid.

But it will not be the only thing you can see , since as if it were an adventure we will have to access underground (parking) to see some remains.


We look forward to sharing a story with you . Come and enjoy this circular tour that starts and ends at Plaza de Isabel II .

A trip back in time to the Middle Ages, straight to the origins of Madrid !
