CASA CERVANTES
Mansion to visit
Read moreClose to the palace of the Marquises of Beniel, it is an old seigniorial house from the beginning of the 16th century, in Mudejar style. Note its beautiful exterior façade and, inside, a square courtyard surrounded by a gallery with brick columns. Oral tradition tells that the writer Miguel de Cervantes stayed there. And that this is where the Bishop of Málaga, Fray Alonso de Santo Tomas, the presumed illegitimate son of King Philip IV, was born in the seventeenth century. The house now houses the official language school of Vélez-Málaga.
