4. Málaga Cathedral

This ornate and stately cathedral is known among locals as La Manquita, or “The One-Armed Lady,” because its tower was intended to be one of two. The first tower was erected to an imposing 276 feet (84 meters), but then construction ceased because the funds were sent to American troops in the War of Independence in 1780. Even without the second tower, the cathedral is grand.

5. Picasso Museum Malaga

Born in Málaga in 1881, Picasso grew up in town, but spent most of his adult life elsewhere. In 1953, he said that he wanted his work to be exhibited in his hometown, but he died in 1973 before he could bring this to fruition. Thirty years after his death, the Picasso Museum Málaga was established, thereby making the elderly Picasso’s wish a reality. Visit the museum to see works and sketches by Picasso, a painter and sculptor who is considered to be one of the greatest artists of all time.
