Estación Museo Chamberí

Estación Museo Chamberí is a metro museum in Madrid that displays the original interior of a station that opened in 1919. The museum preserves ceramic tiles, historical advertisements, restored ticket booths, and architectural elements from this founding period of the underground railway.

Madrid's first metro line was established in 1917 with royal support and opened in 1919, with this station as one of the original stops. Chamberí represents an early example of urban transport infrastructure development in Spain.

The station shows how Madrid looked during the early days of its underground railway, with original tiles and furnishings from that period. Visitors can see how daily operations worked at a metro station in the early 1900s.

The museum is located underground and is easy to reach from nearby transit connections. Visitors should expect narrow passages and underground spaces, so comfortable shoes and a flashlight are helpful for exploring the station.

Active metro trains still pass through the curved station without stopping, giving visitors the sensation of being beside a working railway line. This detail makes the experience authentic since the space remains connected to its original function.
