The Casa de Velázquez is a French school in Spain modelled on the Villa Médicis in Rome, and Villa Abd-el-Tif in Algeria. Like the Prix de Rome bursary for residence at the Villa Médicis and the defunct Prix Abd-el-Tif bursary for residence at the Villa Abd-el-Tif, bursaries are awarded. The idea for a similar villa in Spain was raised in 1916 by the composer Charles-Marie Widor who at the time was secretary of the Académie des Beaux-Arts of the Institut de France. The idea met with support of Alfonso XIII who himself selected a site in Madrid which was ceded to France. The Foundation was legally founded in 1920, adapted by the architect Léon Chifflot, and opened for the first French artists in 1929. The villa was further enlarged by architect Camille Lefèvre (1876-1946) up to 1935. It was built in a Spanish Golden Age revival style, with a clear inspiration from the works of architect Juan de Herrera. In November 1936, during the Civil War, the building was bombed and severely damaged due to its location on the frontline in the siege of Madrid. It was rebuilt in a simpler style in 1959, losing its characteristic Herrerian slate-covered towers.

The Faculty of Philosophy and Letters is a building in Madrid, Spain, part of the Complutense University of Madrid's Moncloa Campus. An example of rationalist architecture, it was projected in 1931–32 by Agustín Aguirre López as the southern end of a closed compound intending to gather the academic disciplines of humanities of the Central University. The first part of the building was inaugurated in 1933. Figures such as Ortega y Gasset, Américo Castro, Manuel García Morente, Xavier Zubiri, María de Maeztu, Manuel Gómez-Moreno, Claudio Sánchez Albornoz and Elías Tormo taught at the building. While the final part was expected to be inaugurated by 1936, the Civil War aborted such plans, and the building was subject of heavy damage by Francoist artillery as it became the headquarters of the XI International Brigade. It was thus reinagurated after undertaking a reconstruction in 1943. The School of Philosophy and Letters was divided in Geography and History, Philology, Philosophy, and Education Sciences in 1974, and the building currently houses just the schools of Philosophy and Philology.Described as "the most emblematic [building] at the Ciudad Universitaria and the one that has endured best the past of time, as it has preserved its architectural configuration with no expansions nor substantial modifications", it was declared Bien de Interés Cultural in 2017.
