Comment

The Cathedral of Malaga, built on what used to be the old aljama mosque, is one of the Renaissance jewels of Andalusia. The construction of the enormous temple, in whose planes participated artists of the stature of Diego de Siloé and Andrés de Vandelvira, lasted more than two hundred years and suffered numerous interruptions, leaving unfinished one of the towers of the facade. Today is one of its best hallmarks.

Interesting fact

The Málaga 5 Euro coin from Spain, made of Silver (.925) and weighing 13.5g, features a unique design that showcases the city of Málaga's rich history and culture. The coin's reverse side features a depiction of the city's famous Alcazaba, a medieval Islamic palace that dates back to the 11th century, while the obverse side features a portrait of King Juan Carlos I. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only 5,000 units minted, making it a sought-after piece for numismatists and collectors of Spanish history.
