Great location. Head to the top floor for the Anna Juan exhibition it’s rather good and certainly the standout exhibition. The Building is beautiful, the staircases are worth a visit🙂they are very well preserved. Cafe on the ground floor is rather special and run by an attentive and enthusiastic team who are very friendly and considerate.
Went there to see the Art Exhibition by Anna Juan, and i dont have enough words to describe how beautiful it was, the pieces by her contain so much character that i took a minimum of 15 minutes to admire each piece. Lastly the projection of the animation of one of the art pieces was nothing short of mesmerizing
Fascinating building with galleries, cafe, restaurant and eighth floor panoramic viewing level.
CentroCentro is definitely worth a visit whether you’re a tourist or live in Madrid. It’s housed in a beautiful historic building that used to be Madrid’s main post office, and you can still feel the grandeur of that era in its architecture—even the stairways are worth admiring. They usually have several exhibitions running at once, covering everything from contemporary art to social themes. Most are free, and every text is provided in both Spanish and English, which makes it easy to explore. Worth a visit—and as a bonus, it’s close to Retiro Park, so you can take a walk before or after.
The building has an entry that is free, similar to airport gates. However, inside, the balcony was closed until 16:00, so we couldn’t visit it.
