3. Picasso Museum Malaga

He may have spent most of life in France, but Pablo Picasso never forgot the town that he grew up in. And Málaga never forgot him either, as the grand and comprehensive Picasso Museum Málaga attests. Picasso, who was born in Málaga in 1881, had long insisted that he wanted his work to be displayed in the town of his birth. In 2003, three decades after his death, that wish came true.

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.
