What you'll see in Madrid
Artist's impression. The size of the bite is the 86.4% published for Madrid, the side the Moon crosses from is its real position angle at maximum, and the Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude. The skyline itself is generic.
Madrid sees 86.4% of the Sun covered. The path of totality passes about 400 km to the south, through Andalusia.
Keep eclipse glasses on for the whole event — the Moon never fully covers the Sun here, so it is never safe to look without them, even at maximum.
⚠ Eye safety
Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses for the entire partial phase. There is no safe moment to remove them in this city — the Sun is never fully covered.
