Museo de América

Highlight • Monument

The museum was created in April 1941, taking shape an idea that had been brewing for a very long time with different names such as the Ultramar Library Museum or the Archaeological Museum of the Indies. In 1943, architects Luis Moya and Luis Martínez Feduchi were commissioned to design the current museum headquarters, beginning the same year and finishing in 1954.

Faro de Moncloa

Highlight • Viewpoint

From Madrid to the sky. The phrase that so well reflects the best Madrid atmosphere comes true. The panoramic elevator travels 92 meters to take visitors to the great viewpoint of the Moncloa Lighthouse, which emerges in the heart of the University City of Madrid. It is a 110-meter-high lighting tower, built in 1992, the year the city was designated European Capital of Culture.
