The church is small, so easy to tour. The crypt is very tiny. The artwork in the church is worth the stop.

Beautiful church! It was mass time and no one was allowed in, not even close to the glass door ?(but the woman let the other tourists in??maybe because they looked like Christian). The woman at the service was very rude ?? She rolled her eyes, thank god I went back and rolled my eyes back at her several times

The Church of Saint Anthony of the German (San Antonio de los Alemanes) in Madrid is a hidden gem that leaves a lasting impression. From the outside, it may appear modest, but stepping inside reveals one of the city’s most breathtaking baroque interiors. The church’s walls and dome are adorned with stunning frescoes that create an almost immersive experience, depicting scenes from the life of Saint Anthony and other religious figures in exquisite detail. The colors and intricate artwork give the illusion of depth and movement, making it feel like the entire space is alive with history and artistry. The church's intimate size enhances the experience, allowing you to fully appreciate the details without distraction. The sense of peace and grandeur combined makes this a must-see for art and history lovers alike. It’s an awe-inspiring and serene retreat that provides a unique glimpse into Madrid’s rich cultural and religious heritage.

I read somewhere that this is currently Madrid's best kept secret, well it might not be for much longer. This is an assault on the senses, I'm tempted not to post any photos to not ruin the surprise for you. 5 euros entry each and it includes an audio guide - come on! The building is VERY plain on the outside and doesn't even look that old, tucked down a side street. Do check opening times first, maybe even make this the first religious establishment you visit. Just sit in quiet contemplation and take it all in.

The Iglesia de San Antonio de los Alemanes in Madrid is a delightful spot for a short visit, taking about 30 minutes to an hour with the audioguide. Though the entrance fee of 5 euros might seem steep to some given the church's small size, it offers a charming and enriching experience. The highlight is undoubtedly the stunning frescoes that adorn the walls and ceiling, allowing visitors to soak in the beauty and artistry of this hidden gem. Overall, it’s a lovely place to admire the intricate artwork and enjoy a peaceful moment in the heart of the city.
