Tetuán, Administrative district in northern Madrid, Spain

The district spans 540 hectares and contains six neighborhoods: Almenara, Bellas Vistas, Berruguete, Castillejos, Cuatro Caminos, and Valdeacederas.

The district name originated from a military camp established by Leopoldo O'Donnell following the African War of 1859-1860, connecting it to the Moroccan city of Tétouan.

The Madrid Central Mosque, constructed in 1988 at Calle Anastasio Herrero, serves the Muslim community with facilities for prayer, education, and gathering across four floors.

The district offers residential options ranging from Neo-Mudéjar style buildings to modern apartments, with more affordable housing prices compared to central Madrid neighborhoods.

The eastern section of Tetuán contains the AZCA business area with modern skyscrapers, while the western part maintains traditional low-rise residential buildings.
