Centro Cultural La Corrala, Cultural center in the heart of Madrid, Spain

The Centro Cultural La Corrala occupies a traditional corridor-style building with a central courtyard, featuring multiple exhibition spaces and meeting rooms.

Built around 1860, this structure initially functioned as a combination of commercial gallery, inn, and residential complex for rural workers moving to Madrid.

The center contains the Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions, displaying over 8,000 items including musical instruments, handicrafts, clothing, and agricultural tools.

Located at Calle Carlos Arniches 3, the center welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

Following restoration by architect Jaime Lorenzo, the building maintains its original O-shaped layout while incorporating modern materials into its historical structure.
