Baroque Churches
Baroque is not only an artistic portrayal, but it is also the mirror of a period. Having a look at the monumental altars, profuse decorations, colossal domes and images of great artistic-historic value is the perfect excuse for a must-see stop in Madrid’s churches in which 17th and 18th century art stands out and where you will be able to discover the churrigueresco or the Baroque evolution styles.
