The castle is located on top of the Gibralfaro hill, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the port of Malaga and the coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Tip: Carry sturdy shoes with you!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Castillo de Gibralfaro was originally a Phoenician fortress. However, in the 14th century it was converted into an Arabian citadel. Today it also houses a small museum. From the castle on a cliff 130 meters high, you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view of the city of M\u00e1laga and its surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gibralfaro M\u00e1laga is located above the Alcazaba and on the Gibralfaro Hill (beacon hill). If you go through the port, you can easily see the mountain and its defensive walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turn left twice after visiting La Alcazaba. Don&#8217;t take the bus to go up the mountain, go on foot! The view will be worth it. Stairs in the castle walls lead to the interior of the castle.&nbsp;You can also buy tickets at Alcazaba, including entry to Gibralfaro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit gibralfaro castle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vivi-homes.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/kasteell-1000x630.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-200\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From these walls you have a beautiful view over Malaga such as the harbor, but you can also see the Montes de M\u00e1laga. On top of the mountain, inside the castle, you will find a small museum where you can see what uniforms the soldiers wore. There is also a model of M\u00e1laga from the time when the Moors were in charge. A ticket costs \u20ac3,50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Opening hours<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The castle is open in the summer from 9:00 am &#8211; 8:00 pm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In winter from 9.00 am &#8211; 18.00 pm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Closed on 24, 25, 31 December and 1 January.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Address: Camino de Gibralfaro 11<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gibralfaro Castle in Malaga is one of the most beautiful sights in Malaga.
