In evidenza

Málaga has seen firsthand the dramatic upheaval that’s shaped Spain over the past 200 years. Once an industrial port, the city has blossomed into a modern cultural destination. On this walking tour, you’ll hear how three powerful industrialist families built their fortunes during the 1800s, only to see their empires crumble amid social and economic turmoil. Starting on Paseo del Muelle Uno at the revamped cruise port, you’ll trace the rise and fall of the three dynasties who turned Málaga into Spain’s second-most important industrial centre. You’ll stroll along the elegant streets they financed and learn how riots, revolution, civil war and dictatorship transformed this Andalusian city. You’ll hear how ordinary Malagueños coped with economic collapse, brutal warfare, and Franco’s repression. The tour ends at Santa Iglesia Catedral Basílica de la Encarnación de Málaga. You’ll learn how the impressive cathedral took 250 years to build, but only has one tower.

About Malaga

Malaga, porto andaluso sulla Costa del Sol e città natale di Picasso: fortezza moresca, spiagge cittadine e vivace scena museale.

L'Alcazaba, una fortezza-palazzo moresca, sale sulla collina sopra il centro storico, con il castello di Gibralfaro ancora più in alto e viste sul porto e sulla baia. Ai suoi piedi si trovano il Teatro Romano e la cattedrale, soprannominata La Manquita, la signora monca, perché la sua seconda torre non fu mai completata.

Top-ranked sights in Malaga: Malaga Alcazaba, Malaga Cathedral (Cathedral de la Encarnación), Constitution Square (Plaza de la Constitucion).
