Las Encinas in real life: this is the Spanish university where 'Elite' was filmed

Although it may seem like the day would never come, Élite has come to an end. The successful series created by Carlos Montero and Jaime Vaca says goodbye definitively with season 8, which has just premiered on Netflix and will serve as the conclusion to one of the biggest phenomena on the platform and in Spanish television fiction.

Las Encinas has opened its doors for the last time to offer viewers a new installment of 8 episodes, which, like the previous ones, will be full of secrets, corruption, and debauchery.

This time, the plot will revolve around the arrival at Las Encinas of the siblings Emilia and Héctor Krawietz, leaders of the alumni association of the school. Their arrival at Las Encinas will shake the foundations of a school that, for another season, will be witness to many secrets and events that will mark a before and after in the lives of its students.

Influential, powerful, corrupt, and corruptors, the Krawietz siblings will sow chaos wherever they go. As Netflix has anticipated and as seen in the trailer, the siblings will destroy the lives of those who fall into their webs. Only Omar will be able to confront them and will be willing to do whatever it takes to see them fall, as they represent everything that has always been wrong at Las Encinas.

In addition to the return of Omar Ayuso, the latest episodes will feature André Lamoglia, Valentina Zenere, Mirela Balić, Gleb Abrosimov, Fernando Líndez, Nadia Al Saidi, Ander Puig, Carmen Arrufat, Mina el Hammani, Iván Mendes, Maribel Verdú. Also joining the cast are Ane Rot, Nuno Gallego, Alexandra Pino, and Mario Ermito, among others.

Shooting of 'Élite'

Las Encinas en 'Élite'

Throughout its seasons, the Spanish series has visited various locations, but one of the common places present in all its episodes is Las Encinas, the central focus of the plot. It may be the only thing that has remained unchanged in the series, despite the comings and goings of the cast members.

However, this educational center does not actually exist, and is more of a well-known Spanish university that was purposely transformed for the series. We are talking about the European University of Madrid, a private university whose campus is located in the municipality of Alcobendas.

Its walls have witnessed the evolution of the series and its characters, to whom it will undoubtedly be difficult to say goodbye in its final episodes.
