Where to Worship: Churches in Madrid

During my extended stay in Madrid, I found it necessary to learn about the importance of religion for the people and the culture.

Although Catholicism is the largest denomination present in Spain, you can find minor religions such as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam being practiced throughout the country.

Most Spaniards self-identify as Catholics, being baptized into the religion at an early age. However, with the current cultural divide between the older and younger generations, there has been a shift in how and why Catholicism should be practiced. However, I am hopeful that by working together, the older and younger generations can find similarities between themselves and focus on those, in hopes of rebuilding a strong foundation. Below you will find a list of 10 churches where you can worship at during your stay that will make you feel right at home.
