Temple of Debod

Once you’ve visited some of the city’s more well-known museums, you’re bound to uncover even more thrilling discoveries at the Temple of Debod.

This iconic temple dates back to the 2nd century BC, donated to Spain by the Egyptian government to save it from floods following the construction of the great Aswan Dam. It is now situated in the city’s Cuartel de la Montaña Park, surrounded by vast gardens for the whole family’s enjoyment.

While you’re at the Egyptian temple, you can learn more about Madrid’s expansive history, then park up for a well-deserved picnic once you’re all schooled out.
