The visit to the Naval Museum of Madrid does not leave anyone indifferent. Perhaps because it is shocking, to begin with, that a city without a sea and without any port has such an incredible collection. And to continue, because the collection itself is spectacular as it has objects of great historical and artistic value.
The visit, free although a donation of 3 euros is requested to maintain the museum, begins at the dawn of modern navigation in Spain. It all starts in the 13th century, although it is really in the 15th century that the country becomes a naval power. It is then when the Catholic Monarchs began to send missions around the world to travel the seas and discover new lands.
In the first rooms we can see objects of great value, such as astrolabes that were used to make navigation possible. There are also scale replicas of the ships that arrived in America, as well as paintings showing Christopher Columbus making contact with the Native Americans. One of the most important elements is the navigation chart of Juan de la Cosa, dated in the year 1500.
The visit continues by entering a great period for the Spanish empire, where the sun never sets. And it is that at that time, in the 16th and 17th centuries, the amount of territories accumulated in Europe, America and Asia made the Spanish army feared throughout the world.
There are objects as incredible as a replica of a Flemish galleon, a stud of Don Juan de Austria and a large number of paintings that represent, among other things, the famous battle of Lepanto.
However, it was not until the 18th century that the Spanish Royal Navy was created, at a time in history when all the European powers were fighting for domination of the seas throughout the world. That period was key in the beginning of the decline of the Spanish empire, which took place mainly in the 19th century.
The first thing to know is that at the beginning of the 18th century there was a change of monarchy with the arrival of the Bourbons and Felipe V. It was he who once again promoted the navy so that it could recover its presence in all seas. With this objective, the Royal Company of Marine Guards was created in 1717 for the training of Spanish sailors. In addition, 3 maritime departments were created: Cádiz for the Indies, Cartagena for the Mediterranean and El Ferrol for the Atlantic.
There is a particularly relevant room that pays tribute, almost exclusively, to the figure of Blas de Lezo. Although in Spain he is not very well known, in British lands he could not have had a worse reputation as he defeated the armies of the islands in 1741 defending the Colombian city of Cartagena de Indias. And he did it despite being clearly outnumbered and military.
We arrive at one of the largest rooms of the Naval Museum, the one dedicated to the Arsenals and Naval Construction of the 18th century. There we can see, mainly, ship models, models of the ports of the Spanish empire in Cádiz, Cartagena and El Ferrol, as well as the remains of different boats, cannons and much more. Due to its large size, on one of the walls we cannot fail to see the pastry cabinet from the Fernán Núñez house, made of red silk and mounted on the sail of a Turkish galley that participated in the battle of Lepanto.
Happy Wednesday!

Cientos de años nos contemplan (que dijo, creo, Napoleón) viviremos de los recuerdos, porque la actualidad es nauseabunda, honor y gloria a nuestros heroes, y deshonor y muerte a los traidores de hoy.
Pues la frase es perfecta 👍🏼👍🏼
Es una auténtica joya tanto el edificio 🏛️ como el Interior 😊
Y he visto fotos del cuartel general de la armada y tiene unas escalinatas de acceso que son espectaculares, ojalá dejen a los ciudadanos verlo por dentro 🙏🏼🙏🏼
🇪🇦👑🥇
Buenas tardes David. feliz miércoles.
Buenas noches Antonio 😊 feliz miércoles y feliz inicio de semana santa
Es uno de los museos menos conocidos y es un preciosidad😊😊😊
gracias David, fantástico reportaje
Muchas gracias Enrique 😊😊
Gracias David, es una joya de España.
Un gran museo lleno de historia y que además se puede visitar gratis con una donación opcional 👍🏼👍🏼
Muy buen vídeo explicativo sobre el museo naval de España. En la mención a Trafalgar como derrota y mencionando a Nelson se debería recordar que fue en esa batalla donde perdió la vida.
Muchas gracias Antonio 😊
Creo además que fue trasladado a Reino Unido en un barril para conservar mejor su cadáver, aunque no estoy seguro de dónde escuché eso 🤔🤔
Bonito edificio y con mucha historia 👍😎😊
Qué tiempos aquellos en los que España dominaba el mar en todos los puntos del mundo... 😎😎
Visite el museo naval hace unos años, 4 o 5 y la verdad es que me encantó.
Muchas gracias David.
Un abrazo!
Yo estuve por primera vez hace unos 20 años 😂😂 ya iba tocando repasar de nuevo algo de historia... Creo que los visitantes extranjeros estaban alucinando con las cosas que había 🥰
Un abrazo Nacho!!
@@viajareslomio1 no me extraña que alucínen, es que merece la pena y es de esas veces que cuando terminas la visita, sales más que satisfecho.
Esperando ya el siguiente David. Estás haciendo un gran trabajo y me gusta siempre ser honesto, no te lo digo por pelotear. Un abrazo!
Blas de Lezo dicen que dijo que un buen español siempre a de orinar apuntando a la pérfida Albión!!!!
Gran personaje de nuestra historia aunque en estas tierras no sea muy conocido...
...ponéis nombres con connotaciones azulgranas a todo!,... monumentos, plazas y templos!,..."Lapuerta" de Alcalá!, "Lapuerta del Sol!,..."Culégiata" de San Isidro!...estáis acogotaos con el "relato" pro-Varça!...Basta ya!.
Un día de estos dejaré de subir videos porque el italiano quiere matarnos a todos con sus cosas... En fin, que con todo lo que llevamos encima ya estemos en una final y estemos aspirando a pasar a semis de Champions es increíble. Lo veía Negreira y tirando a Laporta varias veces hemos marcado 4 goles 😂😂
