Casino de la Reina, Madrid, Neoclassical palace in Embajadores, Spain

The Casino de la Reina displays a symmetrical stone facade with a grand staircase adorned by ten white marble busts and cast iron railings.

The Madrid City Council purchased the Huerta de Romero property in April 1817 to present it as a gift to Queen Isabel de Braganza.

The building housed Spain's first National Archaeological Museum in 1867, collecting important artifacts from monasteries and private donations.

The renovated grounds include a daycare center, multiple gardens, fountains, and recreational spaces accessible through the Embajadores neighborhood.

The modern renovation incorporates a hedge labyrinth that functions as a natural sound barrier against surrounding street noise.

Location: Madrid
