Benalmádena’s history at street level 

Soaking up a place’s culture goes beyond reading a guidebook or recalling historical events. It’s about walking its cobbled streets, entering castles and museums, and observing sculptures that shine outdoors. In Benalmádena, living the past means experiencing the present thanks to the preservation of places of interest that can be visited today: El Bil Bil Castleand Colomares Castle, La Tribuna, the Los Molinillos archaeological site, and the coastal watchtowers. 

Alongside monuments and iconic places, the Benalmádena History Centre safeguards the remains of Benalroma in a privileged setting by the sea. This space displays documents and remains that reveal the town’s evolution.
