Royal Palace Of Madrid

Once envisioned for dances, Charles III transformed this space into the Hall of Halberdiers. Alfonso XIII's era brought several additions—mahogany consoles, French clocks, and more. Copies of Raphael's works and Giaquinto's paintings add historical richness and make this an unforgettable highlight.

Originally intended for infantry quarters, Sacchetti's 1748 project elevated the Royal Chapel to its present location. While Sacchetti's ambitious decoration ideas, including marble flooring and bronze accents, remained unfinished, the vaults and columns, crafted from a single piece of black marble, are stunning.

Originally part of the Queen's Room during Charles III's reign, the Great Hall evolved into a grand space for state dinners. In 1879, Alfonso XII commissioned architect José Segundo de Lema to unite three rooms. The table and wall tapestries, part of the Royal Collection, enhance the room's elegance.

Originally a ballroom, the Column Hall at the Royal Palace of Madrid is now held for ceremonies. Designed by Turin architect Giovanni Battista Sacchetti, its architectural configuration reflects the palace's rich history. Today, it continues to host public events of great importance.

Preserving its 1772 grandeur from Charles III's reign, the Throne Room underwent recent restoration, reviving its magnificence. Originally envisioned with marbles, Charles III entrusted Count Gazzola to oversee the room's decoration, collaborating with architect Giovanni Battista Natali to create a magnificent space.

This hall, designated by the meticulous Chamber Painter Mattia Gasparini, exemplifies Charles III's aesthetic precision. Crafted by international artisans, notable features include German-crafted seats, French candelabras, and a symbolic chandelier commissioned by Ferdinand VII.
