Free Tour Ghosts and Witches of Madrid
♡ Save
Some of Madrid's most emblematic buildings and more hidden ones hide legends and start-up stories that are also part of our culture. How true each story you'll judge.
But remember, there's always some truth in the most implausible. This visit will be a walk between reality and legend, discovering the most chilling mysteries.
The walk will start in the Barrio de las Letras. Having been on the outskirts of the city for so long, he has left us numerous stories of witches and sorceresses. This will only be the beginning of a walk that at each step will become more interesting. Walking through the city center we will discover spectra that have not yet been able to travel to the afterlife, bodies that appear headless and even decapitated nuns.
The visit will end in the Linares Palace with one of the most famous ghosts of the city and that we can hear ourselves. Will you be able to distinguish what is real and what is not? Please leave your phone number, so we can confirm your attendance. Since in case when your reservation is the only reservation of the day and the reservation is not confirmed, it can be canceled.
