Main buildings in the Chamartín district
Our jewelry firm German Jeweler located at Avenida de Concha Espina 5 in the Chamartín district, next to Plaza de los Sagrados Corazones, is very familiar with the Chamartín neighborhood and for this reason we want to show you the most iconic and representative buildings that are definitely worth visiting.
PALACE OF THE DUKE AND DUCHESS OF PASTRANA
This palace is located in the neighborhood of Nueva España between Platería Street and Paseo de la Habana. It was built in 1860 and everyone mistakenly calls it the Palace of the Dukes of Pastrana, however these dukes were never the owners. Its official name is the palace of the Quinta de San Enrique.
It is named after the son of the French-born businessman Louis Ghilhou Rives, who ordered its construction.
This palace is currently owned by ONCE.
The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium is undoubtedly one of the main icons of the city of Madrid. This sports complex, owned by Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, is located on Paseo de la Castellana, in the Chamartín district. It was inaugurated in 1947 and has a capacity of 81,044 spectators.
This incredible stadium is currently under construction and is intended to become the best stadium in the world.
CHAMARTÍN CLARA CAMPOAMOR STATION
This 21-track railway station is located in the north of the Chamartín district and is, after Atocha station, the most important station in Madrid.
In addition, in the Madrid-Chamartín-Clara Campoamor station we can find a wide range of leisure activities due toits restaurants and the Bowling Chamartín bowling alley and its mythical ice skating rink.
Like the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, Atocha station is under construction. The central point of the Madrid Nuevo Norte project is the comprehensive remodeling of the entire Chamartín station.
These two original twin skyscrapers located in the Castilla neighborhood make up the Puerta de Europa and is undoubtedly one of the most famous elements of the Madrid skyline.
These buildings were built between 1989 and 1996 and are also known as the KIO Towers.
Next to the Puerta de Europa we also have two constructions that do not leave indifferent as the Obelisk of the Caja de Santiago Calatrava and the monument of José Calvo Sotelo.
From German Jeweler we wanted to make you this little summary of the buildings that best define the beautiful district of Chamartín but there are some other places that will not leave you indifferent such as the Auditorio Nacional de Música or the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales or the Torres Blancas and of course our jewelry store in Madrid at Avenida de Concha Espina 5 next to Santiago Bernabeu.
