It is known by this name for being the place where some of the most important writers of the Golden Age of Spanish Literature (XVII century) resided: Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Quevedo, Tirso de Molina and Góngora chose this neighborhood to establish their residence in the capital.
There were the comedy corrals of the Príncipe de la Pacheca, currently the Teatro Español, or the one of La Cruz to enjoy the great plays that were performed there. The best comedies of the authors of the Golden Age were premiered on the stage of the Prince's playhouse.
While the Teatro de la Cruz had the honor of hosting the premieres of El sí de las niñas by the illustrious Leandro Fernández de Moratín, the opera El barbero de Sevilla by Rossini or Don Juan Tenorio by Zorrilla.
The remains of Miguel de Cervantes are in the Church of the convent of the Trinitarias Descalzas, located between the streets of Huertas and Lope de Vega. According to his will, Miguel de Cervantes requested to be buried in the convent church in gratitude to the Trinitarians who freed him from five and a half years of captivity in Algiers, in the hands of the Barbary pirates.
On May 14, 1896, during the San Isidro festivities, Madrid premiered the first movie theater in Spain and projected the first films of the Lumière brothers, in the extinct Hotel Rusia, at number 34, Carrera de San Jerónimo.
