Forgotten Women Free Walking Tour

They were also part of history, but the history in lowercase was written by them. Politicians, painters, writers, intellectuals, but also leaders of the labor movement and militia ... Meet some of the most interesting women in the history of Spain and the reason why many of them were barely recognized in a country they trasnformed but that never claimed them.

The tour begins at the Puerta del Sol, where the purpose of the route will be presented and the first female subject who is the protagonist of the visit will be discussed, hidden in the city's coat of arms.

We will then go to the Plaza de Santa Ana and cross the Barrio de las Letras, among whose streets we will discover some of the most relevant and forgotten intellectuals of the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries.

After a stop in front of the Congress of Deputies (in which we will talk about the conquest of the female vote and the person who sowed the seed for its attainment), we will advance to the Prado Museum to explain the presence of women in one of the most important art galleries in the world.

We will finish in front of the Monument to the Fallen for Spain, in the Plaza de la Lealtad, to talk about some of the forgotten heroines of the people of Madrid and the myths that have tried to hide them for centuries.

With this tour you will discover the answer to these and other questions, but also the reason why you did not know it before.
