Royal Collections Gallery Official Opening 1st Anniversary

4 reasons why you should visit the Royal Collections Gallery in Madrid with us

Nowadays, the number of new tourist attractions in downtown Madrid keeps growing. Today we celebrate the 1st anniversary of the Royal Collections Gallery, a young Art Museum that started its activity on the 28th of June 2023.

Why do we highly recommend you a closed-door guided tour of the Royal Collections Gallery? Please, find some reasons below:

  1. Thanks to the excellent promotion of such amazing museum both nationally and internationally, more people are getting interested in the cultural legacy of the Spanish Monarchy. According to the latest statistics, almost 400,000 visitors enjoyed the permanent and temporary exhibitions in 2023.
  2. You can have a look at its 6 floors with a qualified guide in a more private way. The rooms contain  more than 650 pieces, including paintings, furniture, tapestries, sculptures and other old objects, such as the Caravaggio´s masterpiece “Salome with the Head of Saint John the Baptist” and other outstanding paintings by Goya, Velázquez, Titian, Bosch and El Greco.
  3. This museum is housed in a modern building that has already received ten major architectural awards. Although at first glance its design can look a bit sober and simple, the granite slabs will surprise you. Furthermore, its interior design is astonishing if we focus on some details such as its spaciousness, natural light and panoramic views.
  4. The Royal Collections Gallery is located in the heart of Madrid. Next to the museum you can also admire the impressive views of the Sabatini and Campo del Moro gardens, the Almudena Cathedral, the Royal Palace, the Plaza de Oriente and the Royal Theatre.
