Bio / presentation
The Madrid Wax Museum, opened in 1972, is one of the city's most iconic cultural entertainment spaces. Located on Paseo de Recoletos, it features over 450 wax figures representing historical figures, scientists, artists, athletes, and celebrities from film, music, and television. With themed rooms and realistic settings, the museum offers a journey through history, culture, and fiction. Notable figures include King Felipe VI, Leonardo da Vinci, Miguel de Cervantes, and pop icons like Rosalía. Visitors can also enjoy interactive experiences such as the horror train and a motion simulator. Recently renovated, the museum combines tradition with cutting-edge technology to appeal to visitors of all ages. It is a key tourist attraction and an ideal activity for families and school groups interested in learning and having fun in central Madrid.
