Tips from the Community

Vegas y Alcarria Madrileña
January 5, 2025, Palacio de Goyeneche de Nuevo Baztán

The unique urban style of Nuevo Baztán maintains the original Baroque model from the beginning of the 18th century, designed by José de Churriguera by order of Juan de Goyeneche, who had permission from Charles II to build glass, paper and textile factories on Spanish territory. The Navarrese businessman was originally from Arizkun, in the Baztán Valley, but spent time in Madrid because he had other properties and professional relations with the Court. He chose the site of Madrid's Alcarria to found an industrial and rural centre in honour of his homeland and commissioned the Madrid architect to build a glass factory, a farming village of half a thousand inhabitants, a palace, a monumental church and gardens with centuries-old pines and elms. The town preserves cobbled streets, stone squares, rural buildings from the time of its foundation, between 1709 and 1713, and palace gardens, a beautiful heritage complex declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1941 and a Site of Cultural Interest in 2000.

Nuevo Baztán is a population of industrial origin promoted by the editor, journalist and politician Juan de Goyeneche. The main building of this town is the Renaissance palace of Goyeneche itself, from the 17th century, which was declared a historical-artistic monument in 1941.

Nuevo Baztán is 40 minutes from Madrid and has entered the list of "The Most Beautiful Towns in Spain". The Goyeneche palace is in a very beautiful area in front of a square full of trees. Goyeneche's palace and residence forms a façade with the Church, forming the central nucleus of this monument. There is a tourist office where they give you a map and QR codes with a tour to do around the town and all the information about those points.

Until there we went from Alcalá de Henares on a mountain bike following tracks, it was worth it.

The square in front of the palace has a park with shaded benches. There is also a cafeteria. Very good atmosphere.
