Alcalá de Henares is regarded through this guide as an important destination for business events; a bet that complements the
wide range of cultural and heritage activities offered by the City
of Arts and Letters and that also wants to become the keystone
of the city's economic development.
Facing the new economic challenges, we have opted to emphasise the exceptional resources that are at our disposal, and
exploit the economic side of this cultural city, where singularity
makes us unique and supports us in our efforts to generate wealth and employment,
as well as to be a Convention City.
The manual you are holding in your hands will allow you to discover every detail of
Alcalá, its important historical and monumental legacy –declared World Heritage
City in 1998 by UNESCO-, and our wide range of hotels and modern infrastructure,
transforming thus our city into an ideal place for holding meetings and conferences.
From now on, our city opens its doors to you all and offers, through the Municipal
Conference Office of Alcalá de Henares (OMCA), the support and help you might
need to hold a successful meeting in a modern city, and the singularity of a unique
historical environment.

Thanks to its location near the capital of Spain and Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez International Airport; its wide range of hotels; its extensive and rich cultural agenda;
and its transport infrastructure, whether public or private; Alcalá de Henares is a
perfect place for holding all kinds of conferences, meetings and incentive trips.
We would like to position Alcalá de Henares as a city of economic development by
supporting a sector that fosters a high expenditure per tourist, enhances tourism all
year round, and makes the tourist offer profitable; all this along with the common effort and close collaboration with those associations we joined: the Spain Convention
Bureau and the Congress-World Heritage Cities Alliance of Spain.
This manual allows you to know first-hand the offer of our city, give advice and professional assistance from the Municipal Conference Office of Alcalá de Henares
(OMCA), and also allows you to enjoy a unique experience which makes us feel
proud of our city: the opportunity to hold your conferences or meetings in exceptional places that are part of a Historical Site, declared World Heritage Site by
UNESCO. Do not hesitate any more; holding your conference or meeting in Alcalá
is a guarantee of satisfaction and success.

Executive Councillor for Tourism

ART AND CULTURE
The City of the Three Cultures
Discover Alcalá during the Middle Ages, with its three quarters –Christian, Jewish
and Muslim-, through a route that goes all over the landmarks of these historical
areas. The spaces and memories of the mosque and the old synagogues, the jewish butcher’s, the shop keepers, the churches, the trades and places that shaped
and gave much of its character to a medieval town full of contrasts, was an example of cultural fellowship. Ceramic plaques are placed at the most relevant places
of medieval Alcalá. A cross, a seven branched lampstand or a half moon appears
on them, depending on which one of the three quarters they are placed at. There are
also three main plaques, marking the limits of each quarter and the location of the
remaining plaques.
The Muslim Quarter
Main Plaque, Bernardas Square, Archaeological Museum. - Mosque, Santiago
Street. - Almanxara, San Bernardo Street, Archaeological Museum. - Old Market,
crossing between Diego de Torres and Santiago Streets. - Muslim Quarter wicket,
Diego de Torres Street, in front of Madre de Dios street.
Jewish Quarter
Main Plaque, Mayor Street, in front of Imagen Street. - Major Synagogue, Corral de
la Sinagoga alley, facing Mayor Street. – Minor Synagogue, Santiago Street. – Jewish butcher’s, crossing between Cervantes and Mayor Streets. – Shops and houses
at Cambio Corner, Mayor Street, in front of Santos Niños Square.
100

St Pastor. – The Town Council and the Tercia/St Lucy Hermitage, Tercia Street. –
Studium generale, Travesia de Seises Street. – The Brothel, Damas street. – Archbishop’s Jail, Vicario Street. – Santa María la Rica medieval hospital, Santa María la
Rica Street. – Pillory Square, Santos Niños Square. - Fortress/Archbishop’s Palace,

The City of Literature
Thanks to Alcalá de Henares’s cultural relevance and its university tradition our history is full of writers. Some of them were born here, some others discovered and described our city, and many became famous. This signposting guides us through the
places connected with them at Alcalá.
The City of the Storks
Historical and natural heritage are closely linked in Alcalá’s landscape. The historical buildings’ rooftops are a natural settlement area for the white stork. This favours
a tourist route merging both elements, thus creating a new way to discover the city.
Don Juan Tenorio and Don Juan’s Nights at Alcalá
Open air performance of the immortal romantic play from José Zorrilla around All
Saints’ Day. According to the tradition, two performances are made, usually on October, the 31st and November, the 1st, coinciding with the All Saints’ Day celebrations. Don Juan Tenorio at Alcalá was proclaimed a festivity of Regional Tourist
Interest in 2002.
As a complement for those performances, every November, the Council of Tourism
of Alcalá organises dramatized visits: “Las Noches de Don Juan en Alcalá” (Don
Juan’s Nights at Alcalá), a theatrical tour through Alcalá’s Old Town, including discounts and special offers in some of the restaurants and hotels of the city. For additional information and reservations, please contact our Tourist Offices.*
Women’s History of Alcalá
International Women’s Day is annually held on March 8, and Alcalá’s City Council
proposes a dramatized tour that merges the relevant role of women in the history of
the city and the opportunity of visiting the landmarks of its old town. All along the
course, the group will be guided by an actress wearing historical clothes. Itinerary:
Don Quixote’s Women, Antezana and Oidor chapels/The Universes of Cervantes Interpretation Centre. - University and women. María Isidra de Guzmán, San Diego
Square. – Literature: Saint Teresa of Jesus, Antezana Hospital inner courtyard. – A
queen born in Alcalá: Catherine of Aragon, Bernardas Square. – The Catholic Monarchs and Christopher Columbus, their first interview, Palacio Square.

Located near the station of Alcala de Henares, Laredo Palace is undoubtedly a
beautiful architectural caprice. This unique building was opened in 1884 and was
designed by Mayor Manuel José de Laredo, architect, painter, illustrator and
member of the Royal Academy of Arts of San Fernando. It successfully combines
Neo-Mudejar, Gothic, Renaissance, Pompeii and modernists elements with genuine
antiquities.
The inside is a world of surprises. Rooms are inspired by the Alhambra of Granada
with coffered ceilings, plasterwork and tiles on the walls. The Kings Hall is a copy of
the old hall Santorcaz Castle. On the
walls there are figures of various kings
of Castile and the doom roof is one of
the world’s oldest planetariums, a

the first Italian-style theatres conserved in Spain (1831), which also has the peculiarity of having an elliptical floor.
Since 1945 it was used as a cinema (the popular "small theatre") and finally closed
in 1971. Restored after 1981, and since April 2, 2005, the Abadía Theatre Foundation, on behalf of the Community of Madrid, is responsible for managing and scheduling the Comedy Courtyard of Alcalá de Henares.
Also, if available and thanks to its restoration and facilities, the Comedy Courtyard
can host events of different nature with the necessary technical and audiovisual
equipment.
It is located in the historical centre, very close to one of the most representative monuments of Alcalá de Henares.

The building dates from the XV century and
early XV, and remained as charity hospital
thanks to the Confraternity of Santa María
la Rica until the XIX century. Charity Hospitals and Confraternities usually appear related to the protection of urban societies.
One of these orders was that of Santa
María la Rica, which started in the late XIII
or early XIV century. The Brotherhood of
Santa María la Rica kept these activities
through the Hospital until the XIX century.
The building was beautifully restored in the
early years of this century.

built in just one month in 1888. Throughout its history, it has been theatre, variety
lounge, cinema in the 60's and 70's and bingo hall, until the city of Alcalá decided
to recover its original function in the 80’s and integrate it into the network of theaters
of the Community of Madrid. Its facade is one of the few examples of modernism in
the city.
