Jardín del Príncipe

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Garden of the Prince in Aranjuez, also known as the Garden of the Prince of Asturias, is a space of great beauty and historical relevance. The name is due to Charles IV, who ordered its creation when he still held the title of Prince of Asturias. This garden preserves previous elements, such as the Island's orchard.
I hope you enjoy your visit to the Jardín del Príncipe in Aranjuez! 🏰🌳🌸

Royal Chapel of San Isidro

Highlight • Religious Site

The Royal Chapel of San Isidro was built by order of King Carlos III because the oratory of the Royal House could not accommodate all of its employees and laborers who lived in the Cortijo. In this way, the ministers Floridablanca and Grimaldi commissioned the project to Jaime Marquet, but when he died in 1782, Manuel Serrano took over building the current church, which was inaugurated on May 15, 1788. The chapel has a neoclassic. The portico is adorned with four Doric style columns.
