Mayrit (now Palacio)

Palacio is a neighbourhood of Madrid.

It is geographically where the city was funded, but where reforms took their larger tolls, so that the oldest remains of the medieval city are now to be found in Sol, which was before at the outskirt.

This painting from Carlos de Haes in the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, shows how Madrid looked like in the middle of the 19th century:
