My visit to the Crypt at Almudena Cathedral, Madrid.
Today, enjoying a sunny afternoon I came to be opposite this Crypt.
Located directly under the Cathedral, you see the entrance at calle Mayor, 90 where I have walked up to Pueta del Sol, so often that no notice this Crypt is something I should not be proud of.
Look at this video, to meet this church projected and planned by the first Marqués de Cubas, who was commissioned by Alfonso XII in the XIX century.
Take a tour around the Crypt!
The Crypt at Almudena has more than 400 columns, has 20 chapels and was brought from Portugal around "Chao Macas" over 16,000 m3 of stone to its construction in 1883.
