Arab Walls

Unfortunately, it was closed when we visited but it was a beautiful landmark to visit and discover this portion of Madrid’s history.

unfortunately, they were closed during my visit. However, I really loved seeing the structure from the outside. The historical vibe and the surrounding area are captivating, and the location is well-maintained. It’s definitely a great spot for history lovers.

You must see the Arab walls behind the basilica. The sense of time and stability is incredible. The gardens around the walls are a lovely spot for reading or bringing your lunch.

It was amazing to discover that Madrid was built by my ancestors. A truly fascinating place to visit!

The oldest remains in Madrid. If you are interested in history it’s a must visit. There is not much there so it won’t take long. And it’s free.

Usually closed, but you can see the walls from above. It is the oldest preserved building in Madrid, but it is nothing special. Only a small part of walls still stands.

Great to learn about Madrid's ancient history. Lots of cats around!

Part of the oldest construction in the city, from the ninth century. There is not much to see really, just a small garden, a simple wall (but ancient, of course) and some scenery of the church
