Casa del Reloj, Cultural center in Arganzuela district, Madrid, Spain
Casa del Reloj is a brick structure within the Matadero Madrid complex, featuring two exhibition spaces and a multipurpose auditorium. The interior layout accommodates art displays, workshops, and events of varying scales.
The structure was built in the early 1900s under architect Luis Bellido y González as a clock manufacturing facility. Its conversion to a cultural center gave the former industrial building a new purpose as an arts venue.
The building gets its name from the clock-making workshop that once defined the neighborhood. Today it serves as a gathering place for artistic activities that keep the local creative community engaged.
The site is well-connected by public transport and located near other cultural venues within walking distance. Visitor access can vary by season, and it is worth checking ahead as some spaces may host private events.
The auditorium features a movable partition wall that adjusts capacity for different event types and audience sizes. This flexible design demonstrates how the historic building has been fitted with practical modern solutions.
