Centro : Lage und Umgebung dieser Immobilie

This home for rent is located in the Lavapiés neighborhood, in the heart of Madrid. It is very close to the campus of the Carlos III University (Puerta de Toledo). The area offers a wide range of services, from shops, pharmacies, supermarkets and markets, bookstores, schools, to a selection of bars and restaurants, with a varied gastronomic offer. The area is characterized by its bohemian atmosphere and the most cosmopolitan population of the capital. The Lavapiés neighborhood, with more than 500 years of history, was the old Jewish quarter of the city. Some historians claim that it takes its name from the act of ablution that Jews performed before their prayers. There was a fountain in the square where they washed their limbs as ritual purification before going to the synagogue. After the expulsion of the Jews, it was demolished and the church of San Lorenzo was built on the site. The area is booming thanks to its multicultural diversity and its appreciated offer of cultural events due to the opening of art galleries and theaters and its proximity to Museums. It is an emerging area where new non-traditional small business businesses are opening. It has a wide range of public transport services with a Cercanías train station in the Glorieta de Embajadores, as well as several bus lines and the Lavapiés, Embajadores and Acacias Metro stations.
