Marbella is one of the star cities of national and international tourism. It has been known for being one of the Spanish benchmarks in this sector for decades and for this reason, it has become the destination of choice for thousands of travellers from our country and beyond our borders.<\/p>\n

Although Marbella is known as the city of luxury and partying, this town on the Costa del Sol holds hidden secrets such as its old town.<\/strong> If you decide to travel here and get to know the culture and heritage of the city, a stroll through the historic centre of Marbella will take you back in time and show you how tradition is still present in its streets and fa\u00e7ades.\u00a0Andalucian character is one of the things you’ll see in Marbella’s old town, that, and its narrow, cosy alleyways, accompanied by white fa\u00e7ades lined with potted plants and flowers.\u00a0Strolling through its streets and squares full of life and floral aromas, with numerous bars and restaurants, as well as visiting the most emblematic buildings of the city are some of the things to do in the old town of Marbella.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A\u00a0little history<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Old<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marbella preserves the traces of a historical process that is both interesting and extensive in time. Its beginnings date back to the Roman period, though it can be said that the historic centre is the result of a Muslim settlement, where architectural remains, archaeological vestiges and testimonies by chronicles and travellers from the 12th century onwards converge, since it is from this century that Marbella began its development to the north with calle Ancha<\/strong>. One century later it spread to the east with Barrio Nuevo,<\/strong> around what is now calle M\u00e1laga, where Cruz del Humilladero<\/strong> is located.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where to park<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Malaga<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Parking in Marbella is complicated and more so during the summer season, which is when there is a greater number of tourists. The best way to not waste time is to use one of the car parks that exist in Marbella. As a general rule, we have to say that the car parks are expensive, but bear in mind that you are in Marbella and are going to save quite a lot of time. Here are some places to park your vehicle.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Plaza de la Victoria Car Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Plaza de la Victoria Car Park is the most suitable option for those who are going to visit the\u00a0 centre of Marbella, since from here you can walk via the promenade and you will also see the famous Alameda and Avenida del Mar.<\/p>\n

It has to be said that if there are no places at this car park, you only have to keep driving a little more in the direction of the Municipal Market and there you will find the Avenida del Mar Car Park, which we will talk about below.<\/p>\n

Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Avenida del Mar Car Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This car park is located behind La Alameda Park, a few minutes from both the beach and the old town. This makes it perfect for those who decide to visit this part of Marbella. You enter via calle Macintosh and calle El Fuerte.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

El Mercado Car Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This public car park, as its name indicates, is located at the Municipal Market, right in the heart of the old town, in the very centre. Its entrance is on Avenida del Mercado, while the pedestrian approaches are on calle Quevedo, at Plaza del Mercado and, of course, inside the market.<\/p>\n

Tapas hopping<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Marbella\u2019s historic centre is one of the best places in Marbella to have a beer or a glass of wine while you enjoy some Basque style pinchos<\/em>, market and seafood cuisine, or Cordoba or Asturian dishes. They have it all here. In the capital of the Costa del Sol you will find everything from small local bars to designer bars. There are options for all tastes, so here is a small selection of places where you can stop and enjoy a snack.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Taberna de la Ni\u00f1a del Pisto<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the Ni\u00f1a del Pisto you will enjoy pleasant service, with the option to have some tapas at the bar or sit at one of its tables and eat at a slower pace. Whether you go for the bar or its restaurant area, we advise you to not leave without trying its pisto with egg, salmorejo<\/em> (Andalusian style gazpacho) and bull\u2019s tail.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bodegas La Venencia<\/strong><\/p>\n

La Venencia is a mythical place in Marbella because it has been offering the best products for over 30 years. This place looks like an Andalusian bar, which gives it a special charm, though what customers will love are its Iberian products. This takes nothing away from its other gastronomic offerings, such as bull\u2019s tail and lamb chops.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bodega San Bernab\u00e9<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bodega de San Bernab\u00e9 is one of the few typical Marbella bars still remaining today.\u00a0It is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of vermouth with a tapa made from its delicious preserved foods, Iberian cold cuts or sausages. If you are wondering what we recommend, we will say that you can\u2019t leave without trying the salmorejo<\/em> or the combination of salted and picked anchovies<\/p>\n

Arco tapas bar<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bar el Estrecho<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a stroll through the old town of Marbella, having some tapas is the best option for our day without leaving this area of the city and recharging our batteries.\u00a0In one of the narrow alleys, which could be where its name comes from, we find this small tapas bar in Marbella that is more than 70 years old.\u00a0Spanish cuisine at its best is what El Estrecho offers us and what is more traditional than croquettes. This tapas bar won the award for the best croquettes in 2023.\u00a0But this is not the only recognition that this special corner of Marbella has, as the service is second to none and for this reason, it also received the award for the best service.\u00a0The secret of El Estrecho is the homemade food they have been making since 1954. As well as being the best place to eat the best croquettes in Marbella, you can’t leave without trying the meatballs, anchovies, salpic\u00f3n<\/em> and Russian salad. And of course, accompanied by a good vermouth.\u00a0It is, without a doubt, one of the must-visit places on your list of tapas bars in Marbella in the heart of the historic centre.<\/p>\n

Although the range of gastronomic possibilities for our palates is very wide, the ones we recommend are the avocado flamenqu\u00edn<\/em>, the vegetable timbale, the foie lollipop or some of the delicious salads.

Marbella Old Town Open Shopping Centre<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Marbella<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We could not talk about shopping in Marbella\u2019s centre and not mention its open shopping centre, a space made up of over 400 businesses, including shops, bars and restaurants.<\/p>\n

Here you can do your shopping and enjoy some down time as you walk through the narrow streets and pedestrian squares, all surrounded by a 9th century wall and numerous 16th century churches and chapels, among many other things.<\/p>\n

Marbella Old Town curiosities<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The treasure of Mustapha<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Legend has it that in a chamber of the Barbican of Marbella Castle, there was a treasure enclosed in clay vessels, whose whereabouts were known only by Mustapha, the \u201ccharmed Moor.\u201d Whoever was brave enough to try to get it would have to go three nights in a row to the place where a huge bull would be waiting, a large snake and finally on the third night, they would receive the precious treasure from the hands of Mustapha.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The hidden panelling of El Hospitalillo<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Chapel of San Juan de Dios, popularly known as \u201cEl Hospitalillo\u201d and built in the 16th century by order of the Catholic Monarchs, hid Mozarable panelling for centuries, which only came to light in the mid-20th century.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The cross of Calle M\u00e1laga<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A cross located on Calle M\u00e1laga shows the exact spot where, according to tradition, the Muslim governor of Marbella, Aguneza, handed over the keys to Ferdinand the Catholic on the day of the city\u2019s reconquest on 11th June 1485. Each year on this date, which is a festival in Marbella, the day of its patron saint, San Bernab\u00e9, is celebrated.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Arab wall<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Next to the castle of Marbella is the Arab wall in the historic centre of the city. It is of such importance that it was recently declared an Asset of Cultural Tourist Interest. It is a jewel of our Arab ancestors, in particular, it was an ancient medina and nowadays this wall is the remains of a walled enclosure that today still preserves some of the Muslim vestiges and different architectural styles.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Museum of Contemporary Engraving<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Enjoying culture and history in the heart of the old town of Marbella is one of the things you have to do on your route through this area of the city. Here we find the Museum of Contemporary Engraving which is nothing more and nothing less than a Renaissance palace in which more than 1300 works are exhibited and where we can find jewels of authors such as Dal\u00ed, Goya, Picasso and Mir\u00f3. It is undoubtedly an obligatory stop for art lovers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Santo Cristo hermitage<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Did you know that Marbella has a pilgrimage site? The Santo Cristo hermitage located in the area of the arrabal, one of the upper parts of the old town is a sanctuary, the oldest in the whole city. Its style is in the purest Andalusian style, with a facade of exposed stone and lime and serves as a point of pilgrimage.<\/p>\n

So do you know of any other?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And the rest is for discovering…<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Walk and take in its relaxed atmosphere.<\/p>\n

In summary, deciding what to do and see in Marbella\u2019s old town beforehand can help you and give you a general idea of what you will find, but the best advice we can give you is to just come.<\/p>\n
