The adventure begins around the historic Plaza Mayor, a symbol of Madrid's Habsburg heritage. This square has been the backdrop for various important events, from royal ceremonies to public executions. You'll then venture into the lesser-known corners of Madrid, such as Puerta Cerrada Square (Closed Gate), a remnant of the medieval walls that once protected the city. As you stroll down Cava Baja, you can imagine the lively atmosphere of the past, with travelers and locals mingling in its popular taverns. As you walk with your group, you will hear about the life of Saint Isidore the Farmer, Madrid’s patron saint, and cross quaint plazas like Los Carros and La Paja, the essence of medieval Madrid.
