📖

Full description

La Casa Encendida is a contemporary cultural centre in central Madrid that mixes art galleries, activity rooms, a café, a fair-trade shop and a roof terrace under one roof. Entry is free, and the programme leans toward current exhibitions, workshops and live events rather than a fixed collection.

Reviewers call it the best cultural space in the city, praising its relaxed local atmosphere, while noting that visitors on a tight schedule may not have time for it. It suits travellers who want to see what Madrid's creative scene is doing today, and an hour is enough for a first pass through the galleries.

Great local arts centre with galleries, café, activities rooms and events. There is a lovely roof terrace although it has limited views out. It's free to get in.
