Catedral Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación
Catedral Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación (Calle Molina Lario 9, Málaga) – this cathedral is one of the town’s most important monuments. The south tower and the main façade are unfinished. It is located in Malagá’s historic center. The building sits where a mosque-Moorish quarter once existed. Work began in the first half of the 16th century, in the Gothic style, ordered by the Catholic Monarchs, and continued in the 17th and 18th centuries. It has its own gardens and a magnificent courtyard. The interior of the cathedral has Renaissance and Baroque influences. Most noteworthy are the choir stalls (17th century) in the central nave and, especially, the sculptural works of Pedro de Mena. The chapels are also very interesting. Admission: €6 (adult), €5.50 (seniors), free admission for children. See its website for an updated schedule: https://malagacatedral.com
