Wax Museum

The Wax Museum in Madrid is the perfect place to spend an enjoyable afternoon, especially if you go with children. More than just an exhibition of figures, it recreates atmospheres, combines spaces and sounds, and offers a unique way of getting to know history, through the more than 450 people represented there. It introduces the visitor to people of all periods and occupations from different disciplines and fields of knowledge. Among them we find famous athletes, politicians, and celebrities from the past and present. Included are historical figures like Cleopatra, Napoleon, and the Kings of the Hapsburg and Bourbon dynasties, among others.

The museum has placed special interest on reflecting the world of children and young people with characters like Pocoyo, Elly and Duck, E.T. or Buzz Lightyear. One of the most successful galleries with the adult audience is the Wax Horror Experience, focusing on horror films with figures like Hannibal Lecter, Nosferatu and many others.
