Casa de América
Information
This consortium made up of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, the Community of Madrid and Madrid City Council aims to forge closer links between Spain and the American continent, particularly with Latin America and the Caribbean. To do so, it organises all kinds of cultural events, such as exhibitions, conferences or film and literary cycles.
Its premises, the Palacio de Linares in the Art Walk, are a real jewel which must be visited. The limestone building, with its clean lines, the work of Carlos Colubí, Adolf Ombrecht and Manuel Aníbal Álvarez, houses an interior rich in furniture, lamps and bronzes from Paris, crystal from Antwerp, carpets from the Royal Tapestry Factory and a choice collection of paintings by artists of the stature of Francisco Pradilla, Manuel Domínguez and Alejandro Ferrant.
Raimunda restaurant is inside Linares Palace, where you can savour the fusion of Spanish and Ibero-American cuisine. The restaurant is divided into three spaces: a main dining room decorated by Madrid In Love, which takes diners to Ibero-American countries; a more informal area with a private club atmosphere to extend the evening; and a terrace which, with the arrival of spring, becomes a true oasis full of vegetation in the heart of Madrid.
