Metro de Madrid museums Extend their opening hours this Easter Week
During this Easter Week, Metro de Madrid invites you on a cultural tour without leaving underground. Discover the underground museums you can visit free of charge simply by validating your ticket.
Madrid never ceases to surprise, and this Holy Week it offers a perfect plan for curious people, art lovers and urban explorers: visit the museums of Metro de Madrid, unique cultural spaces located within the transport system itself. Until 31 March, you can access several stops transformed into genuine underground museums free of charge. Among the most notable are Estación de Chamberí, also known as the “ghost station”, which retains its original 1920s aesthetic, and Nave de Motores de Pacífico, an impressive industrial facility that supplied electricity to the metro in its early days. You can also visit Vestíbulo de Pacífico, Estación de Carpetana, with its palaeontological remains, and Ópera, where archaeological remains of the old aqueduct and the Caños del Peral fountain are on display. All you need is a valid Metro ticket to access these spaces and enjoy a different kind of cultural stroll, without queues or crowds. This proposal is ideal for those staying in Madrid during Holy Week who want to discover corners full of history without spending too much. So now you know: this Holy Week, art, history and architecture await you... underground.
