Plaza Mayor is one of the most popular attractions in Madrid. It was built during the Habsburg time and it has a rectangular shape (129*94 metres). Plaza Mayor has had several functions throughout history. The square has for example been used to execute heretics during the Inquisition and it has also been used for bullfights, soccer games and parades. Today you can find beautiful statues, the famous “Casa de la Panaderia” and cozy coffee shops at the square.
