| Description | The Palacio Real de Madrid is the official residence of the Spanish Royal Family but is only used for state ceremonies. King Felipe VI and the Royal Family, chooses to reside in the more modest Palacio de la Zarzuela on the outskirts of Madrid. The palace is owned by the Spanish State and administered by the Patrimonio Nacional, a public agency of the Ministry of the Presidency. It is on the site of a 9th-century Alcázar, near the town of Magerit, constructed as an outpost by Muhammad I of Córdoba and inherited after 1036 by the Moorish Taifa of Toledo. After Madrid fell to Alfonso VI of Castile in 1083, the palace rarely used. The old Alcázar was built in the 16th century and in 1734 it was destroyed by a fire. King Philip V ordered a new palace built on the same site and followed a Bernini design adapted by Filippo Juvarra and Giovanni Battista Sacchetti. |
