The gallery’s tapestries are considered one of the most important collections in the world, as they are unique pieces dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries. The tapestries of the Royal Collections Gallery are made with a special weaving technique called “high warp,” which allows for the creation of detailed and colorful images. Each tapestry tells a different story and represents a scene from the lives of the kings of Spain. These tapestries have been recently restored to maintain their beauty and historical value.

Everything you need to know before visiting the Spanish Crown's heritage with a private guide from Tour Time.

The museum and its collection

The Royal Collections Gallery is Madrid's newest museum, opened in 2024 next to the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral.

It's the largest museum project in Spain in recent decades.
The guided tour takes you through the museum's themed rooms: the gallery of 16th-century Flemish tapestries, the royal armour collection, paintings from the 15th to the 19th century, the impressive collection of historic carriages, and everyday objects used by the Crown. The guide explains the historical and artistic significance of each piece within the context of the Spanish monarchy.
The Royal Collections Gallery is a very new museum with an enormous number of pieces of great historical value. Without a guide, it's difficult to grasp the significance of each object. A private Tour Time guide puts each room into context, connects the works to the monarchs who commissioned or used them, and turns the visit into a coherent narrative of the Crown's history.
