Calle del 7 de Julio is a street in Sol (Madrid), that links the Calle Mayor with the Plaza Mayor.
Its name commemorates the July 1822 Spanish coup d'état on 7 July (1822), which ended with the victory of the constitutionalists from the national milice against the royalists of the Guardia Real. The tribute extends to the next street, the c. del Arco de Triunfo.
It was previously known as the more poetic calle de la Amargura (street of bitterness), maybe because people to be burnt on the Plaza Mayor during the Spanish Inquisition were passing through this street.
