Calle de Fuencarral is a street in the center of downtown Madrid, Spain. Today, it is a popular shopping street and tourist area.^[1][2] It also serves as the dividing line between the Chueca and Malasaña neighborhoods of downtown Madrid.^[3]

The street is noteworthy for being the fourth most expensive street to live on in Madrid.^[4]

The street intersects with Gran Vía, and runs parallel to Calle Hortaleza and Calle de Valverde.

The street derives its name from the old township of Fuencarral outside of the old city of Madrid. Before Madrid was declared the capital of Spain, the northern part of the street was covered with streams and forests, and the street connected the city of Madrid to the old township of Fuencarral, which was annexed to the city of Madrid in 1950.

In 2009, part of the street was transformed to only allow foot traffic.^[5]
