Madrid Museums
San
Isidro Museum
Madrid’s patron saint is said to have lived here for
a fairly long time. Presently this attractively designed building
is a museum, displaying artifacts from Madrid’s history
which date from ancient times to around 1560. Some of the
pieces actually belong to the Madrid City Museum and the Archaeological
Museum. The building also includes an exquisite 17th century
chapel, decorated with beautiful frescos by Zacarías
González Velázquez. The 16th century Renaissance-style
patio features a delightful wishing well and as stories have
it, San Isidro once saved his son from drowning in it.
