Madrid was born on a hill above the Manzanares river, around an Arab fortress. Later it became the city of kings and the capital of Spain. The historic centre is easy to explore on foot, among squares, palaces and gardens. With Piracity you discover it as you walk, like a treasure hunt for the whole family.

Puerta del Sol
The Puerta del Sol is the heart of Madrid and the meeting place of the madrileños, as locals are called. Here you find the New Year's Eve clock and kilometre zero of Spain's roads.

The Plaza Mayor is the great enclosed square of Habsburg Madrid. Juan Gómez de Mora completed it in 1619, and for centuries it hosted markets, festivals and ceremonies.

The Plaza de la Villa is a little square in medieval Madrid. It brings together three buildings from three different centuries, including the historic seat of the city government.

The sights along the route
The route takes in eight places in the centre, all close to each other. You pass through the Plaza Mayor, the great square that hosted festivals, markets and ceremonies for centuries. You climb to the Almudena Cathedral, on the oldest hill in the city. You arrive in front of the Teatro Real, the opera house. The rest you will discover stop by stop: palaces, gardens and statues of kings.
It is about 3 km on foot and about 3 hours of play, plus your breaks. The route does not return to the starting point and ends near the metro.
History and culture, lived through play
Every stop tells a piece of history. You will meet the kings of Castile and of Spain, the Italian architects called to court, sculptors and musicians. There are questions on art and traditions, riddles, anagrams and little logic puzzles. The questions are designed for children aged 9 and up and for their parents.
You don't need to know everything already. Many answers are found by looking carefully at what is in front of you, others by reasoning together. That way a walk becomes a challenge to play as a team.
An adventure that continues
Once the hunt is over, Madrid still has plenty to offer families. The Retiro park has avenues, lawns and a big pond with rowing boats. Next to the Parque del Oeste stands the Templo de Debod, an ancient Egyptian temple that Egypt gave to Spain.
You can also walk along Madrid Río, the large riverside park on the Manzanares, with playgrounds and cycle paths. Every neighbourhood has its own story: the next hunt is waiting for you.
