Things to do Crimes: Madrid's darkest side

We begin in Plaza Mayor, talking about the Spanish Inquisition, its trials, tortures, and death sentences. At the Arco de Cuchilleros, we will uncover the story of a feared Madrid serial killer, the ‘Matamendigos’ (Beggar Slayer). Next, in Plaza del Conde de Barajas, two chilling events will be revealed: the story of the most cursed street in Madrid and the case of the only police report in Madrid that mentions paranormal events.

In the solitary Plaza del Conde Miranda, we will recount the case of the captain's daughter and the secrets hidden in the Church of the Carboneras. We will continue along quiet streets to Plaza de la Villa, a square whose beauty conceals true horrors. Our journey will end at the Palace of the Marqués de Cañete, where a bloody crime seems to still echo in the present.

If you want to delve into the mind of a serial killer or uncover the anatomy of unforgivable crimes, this is your route!

This tour details violent events such as murders, tortures, abuses, and paranormal occurrences. For this reason, it is not suitable for children (the company reserves the right of admission).
