Itinerary
Immerse yourself in the splendor of Madrid's Baroque with an exclusive experience that will take you to discover two of its most emblematic monuments, open exclusively for cultural visits. In San Antonio de los Alemanes, you'll admire the finest example of Madrid's Baroque architecture, with its unique elliptical floor plan and impressive frescoes by great masters such as Luca Giordano, Carreño de Miranda, and Francisco Rizi. The artistic richness of this space has earned it the nickname of the "Sistine Chapel" of Madrid, and you can also admire the remarkable sculptures by Manuel Pereira, which complete this unique ensemble.

Afterwards, you'll enter the Monasterio de San Plácido, one of the city's greatest hidden gems and belonging to the Benedictine order. After four centuries closed to the public, this Baroque church is now opening its doors for you to discover the largest collection of works by Claudio Coello in the world, with the highlight being the monumental canvas of the Annunciation, almost seven meters high, which presides over the main altar. Enjoy an unforgettable cultural experience and be amazed by the history, art, and spirituality of these two must-see sites of Madrid's heritage.
