The Rastro Madrile\u00f1o dates with valid documentation from the year 1740 as a meeting place for the sale, exchange and barter<\/strong> of second-hand clothes, as an alternative to the peddling business. It was located in the vicinity of the old slaughterhouse and tasks related to the tanning of animal skins were carried out in the surrounding area. In fact, this is the origin of its name, since ‘rastro’ in the 16th century was synonymous with butchery or slaughterhouse. All these activities have been reflected in the Madrid street map of the neighborhood: Carnero, Cabestreros, Ribera de Curtidores (then called Tener\u00edas street).<\/p>\n

Of all the Madrid neighborhoods in the second half of the 18th century, Lavapi\u00e9s was precisely the most populated and most industrial. The proliferation of these small<\/strong> leather industries attracted other tanners, weavers, shoemakers, tailors, etc. The area, in addition to the slaughterhouse, housed two factories, one for saltpeter and the other for tobacco. The crowding attracted street vending to these southern neighborhoods. At the end of the 19th century, some guilds began to group together in bazaars that set up specialized barracks for the sale of scrap metal: doors, windows, smokers’ shops, etc.<\/p>\n

In the first three decades of the twentieth century, the Rastro extended along several adjacent streets and attracted the attention of intellectuals, artists and writers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At 1952<\/strong>due to the success of the galleries in the area and the natural demand of the population for high-end and avant-garde collecting<\/strong>The New Galleries were inaugurated, with a large balcony overlooking the Ribera de Curtidores, from where it can be accessed through portal number 12.<\/p>\n

Since then, some of the best antique dealers in Madrid<\/strong> have gathered here. It also features contemporary art and an extraordinary selection of graphic works offered by scientific instruments, among many other services offered by the different gallery owners.<\/p>\n
