Drop into Casa de la Arquitectura, a free museum in Chamberí devoted to the built environment. Wander its bright halls and follow the evolution of Spanish architecture through models, drawings and themed exhibitions.

📖

Full description

Casa de la Arquitectura is a small free museum in Chamberí dedicated to architecture, with exhibits on how Spanish building traditions have evolved, including themes of sustainability. The main exhibition occupies the first floor, where large windows bring in plenty of daylight, and several smaller displays run alongside it.

Visitors praise both the architecture of the halls and the way works are presented, and the staff are described as friendly. It suits anyone with a genuine interest in architecture and works as a short, quiet stop of about half an hour; casual visitors may find it less engaging.

Reviews

Nice. With several expositions. Free entry and friendly staff. You will enjoy it more if you are an architect or truly enjoy architecture, otherwise not really worth it.
