About Las Tablas

What are the main landmarks in Las Tablas?

The landmark register is empty. No monument, church or museum in the record carries the name of Las Tablas, so the barrio has to be described by its own ground and by the barrios that adjoin it rather than by a set-piece sight. Valverde and Fuencarral lie closest.

Mirasierra and Castilla stand further out, and anyone after a named monument will be travelling into the middle of Madrid rather than walking to one from a room in this barrio.

What is the history of Las Tablas?

Las Tablas enters Madrid's barrio rolls without a date. The entry for Las Tablas carries a name and a position in the barrio structure of Madrid and nothing older than that, with no charter, no parish date and no monument list to date the ground by. What is fixed is the administrative line, which runs from the barrio up through Madrid to the Comunidad de Madrid and on to Spain.

Valverde and Fuencarral answer the same way.

Where is Las Tablas?

Las Tablas covers a stretch of the Madrid barrio map, with Valverde and Fuencarral each about a kilometre off and Mirasierra several more.
