Hiking

Opposite the Retiro Park, on Calle de Alcalá, stands one of the best-known buildings in Madrid due to its original construction, which dates back to the first decade of the 20th century. The work of the architect Fernando Arbós y Tremanti was used as a teaching center and church-convent for the Augustinian Fathers. The patrons of this initiative were the Catalan businessman Manuel Caviggioli and his wife Benita Maurici, who generously donated the land for this purpose and from whom the church takes its title.

For me it is one of the most beautiful churches in Madrid. His view of Retiro Park from the Hernani Gate is impressive. This is because of its imposing dome, reminiscent of oriental models, and its elegant tower in the style of the Italian bell tower.
