Casa Museo Lope de Vega

Former home of the Golden Age dramatist

Paraguas de ladrillo cocido el de estas ventanas

Located in the reconstructed home of the Spanish Golden Age playwright, the Casa de Lope de Vega is a charming little museum shining a light on the complex life of the dramatist and seventeenth-century Madrid, a city which the writer described as "a beautiful Babylon".

The tiny chapel, the writer's study, an intriguing Arabic-style drawing room and the picturesque courtyard garden are of particular interest.
