Inaugurata nel giugno 2023, dopo un processo di costruzione durato quasi vent’anni, la Galería de las Colecciones Reales espone una parte della collezione reale di 155.000 pezzi di Patrimonio Nacional, con opere dal XII al XIX secolo. L’edificio, rivestito in granito e incastonato nel fianco della collina sotto il Royal Palace, sulla Cuesta de la Vega, ospita dipinti di Velázquez, Caravaggio e Tiziano, oltre ad armature reali, arazzi e carrozze da parata. Sorge accanto al Royal Palace e alla Almudena Cathedral, sulla Plaza de la Armería; il biglietto cumulativo per il Palace e la Gallery costa 24 € (12 € ridotto).
