Its main attraction is the 17th-century Corral de Comedias, where Lope de Vega and Tirso de Molina staged their plays. It remains active and is very busy throughout the year, especially in July, when the International Classical Theatre Festival is held. Almagro is also home to the National Theatre Museum.
