In evidenza

Madrid produced the coal that both built the Bomb and inspired Walt Disney. Abandoned as a ghost town for many years, it was reborn as a thriving artistic community. The Oral History Tour lets you hear Madrid’s stories, as told by the people who lived them. Using smartphone technology, it plays the audio automatically, at exactly the right time and place. All dimensions of Madrid’s peculiar, multifaceted story are explored: from an eyewitness account of union-busting violence, to that time the brand-new fire engine accidentally burned down the firehouse. The Oral History Tour was distilled from seventy hours of interviews, and endures as a preserved collective memory of this unique New Mexican treasure. Of this two-hour tour, The Santa Fe Reporter wrote, “It’s a deep dive into the fascinating history of the little town. You’ll find interviews with locals, some of whom have lived in Madrid their whole lives, and a narrator with a soothing voice ... it works exceedingly well.”

About Santa Fe

Santa Fe, capital of New Mexico, is a high-desert city of adobe buildings, art galleries and Native American and Spanish traditions below the mountains.

Santa Fe lies at about 2,200 metres at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and it is the highest state capital in the United States. Spanish colonists founded it around 1610, and the Palace of the Governors, an adobe building on the central plaza, dates from those early years. Portals along the plaza are where Native American artists sell jewellery and pottery. The spiral staircase of the Loretto Chapel and the Cathedral Basilica of St Francis, in Romanesque style, stand within a few streets.
