The Aguirre Schools (Spanish: Escuelas Aguirre) is a notable Neo-Mudéjar style building in Madrid, Spain. Located at Calle de Alcalá, 62, it is named after Lucas Aguirre, a Spanish philanthropist who left funds for the construction of schools. As the building has housed the Casa Árabe e Instituto Internacional de Estudios Árabes y del Mundo Musulmán since 2006, it is also currently known as the Casa Árabe ("Arabic House").
