DescriptionMadrid - Matadero Madrid (36176923785).jpg
Chopera | Paseo de la Chopera
Matadero Madrid is a former slaughterhouse which has been converted to an arts centre. It was then called El Matadero y Mercado Municipal de Ganados.
The project of the slaughterhouse and livestock market was structured around a complex of pavilions characterised by functionality, constructive rationality and conceptual simplicity. There is however a historicist element to the architecture, which incorporates Neo-Mudéjar features, such as tiles with abstract designs.
