Instituto Lope de Vega

The Instituto Lope de Vega is a public secondary school located in the San Bernardo district, housed in a protected building at Calle de San Bernardo 70. It offers secondary education, upper secondary programs, and vocational training in fields like systems administration and environmental chemistry.

The school was recognized in 2017 as a Commander of the Order of the Second of May, an honor acknowledging its contributions to education in Madrid. This recognition reflects the institution's long role in serving the city's educational needs and cultural development.

The school is named after one of Spain's greatest playwrights and poets, creating a living connection to Spanish literary tradition within its daily work. This namesake gives the institution a particular cultural identity rooted in the country's artistic heritage.

The school features specialized laboratories and training facilities for vocational students in technical fields. Access may be limited during regular school hours, so visits work best when scheduled in advance or during quieter periods.

The building itself is protected as a cultural heritage site, meaning its architecture carries historical significance and is preserved for future generations. This protection makes it one of the few schools in the city where education happens within walls considered important to Madrid's history.
