Annotation
At the latest renovation of the Madrid Plaza de Colón beneath the square a subterranean Centro Cultural de la Villa was built. This centre us under the square, and the entrance is in a half subterranean corridor. The map is on the wall of this corridor. The old Columbus monument is standing now on a kind of overhanging shelter.
