Santa Iglesia Catedral Basílica de la Encarnación de Málaga

There is lovely little park outside Cathedral with water canal. Birds flying around and beautiful orange trees. It was not easy to get to Cathedral 2x it was closed even it tried in opening times (by their website) but my third attempt was successful. I bought tickets at entrance and waited just couple of minutes. Insite it was really nice and peaceful. There is little museum as well do not miss it!

The Cathedral of Málaga is a beautiful place to visit, especially if you enjoy architecture. Built in a mix of Renaissance and Baroque styles, it has impressive columns, peaceful chapels, and stunning details that make the interior really special. Entrance to the inside of the church is free from Monday to Saturday between 8:30 and 9:00. I went during this time and there were very few people, which made the experience calm and pleasant. It’s a lovely stop if you’re exploring the historic center. Even if you don’t spend long inside, the architecture and atmosphere make it worth seeing.

Beautiful and impressive cathedral with stunning architecture and a peaceful interior. The details, high ceilings, and stained glass are breathtaking, and the audio guide adds helpful context. A must-visit landmark in Málaga, though the entrance fee feels a bit pricey.

We visited Málaga Cathedral this time only from the outside, but it was still very impressive. The architecture is beautiful and the building makes a strong impression even without going inside. Definitely worth seeing while walking around the city.

We almost skipped this because of the line, but I am so glad we didn’t. It was a beautiful baroque style cathedral. At the time we went it cost €10 to get in, they ask you if you want a listening tour, say yes, it is free, and very informative. So glad we visited!

A monumental building with some lovely side chapels will take some time to look around. The entry cost is €9 with lots to see. Do not miss the Incarnation Chapel behind the main alter, it is lovely. The choir has some stunning wood carvings. Give yourself lots of time as there is so much to see. The Catholic Monarchs ordered the construction of the building. It is popularly known as La Manquita. The cathedral of the Encarnación is one of the town's most important monuments. The south tower and the main façade are unfinished. It is situated in the historic centre of the town. The building sits where a mosque-Moorish quarter once existed. Work began in the first half of the 16th century, in the Gothic style, ordered by the Catholic Monarchs, and continued in the 17th and 18th centuries. It has its own gardens and a magnificent courtyard. The interior of the cathedral has Renaissance and Baroque influences. Most noteworthy are the choir stalls (17th century) in the central nave and, especially, the sculptural works of Pedro de Mena. The chapels are also very interesting, such as that of the Encarnación, which gives the cathedral its name.

This is such a beautiful catherdral. Unfortunately there was a service happening so visiting the interior was not possible. But the exterior is wonderful. It is called the one-armed lady as only one spire was built and the money ran out for the construction of the second. Another interesting fact is that it was a mosque and rather than demolishing this to build the Catholic Church it was incorporated. The ex try error carvings are lovely and the surrounding area very picturesque. It is well worth the visit to the old town and the cathedral

We were in Malaga for the day while on a cruise with NCL. We walked all around the old city center and eventually passed by the Basilica. We did not have time to enter so I am only commenting on the beautiful outside structure. It is a magnificent example of baroque style. Locally known as The one armed lady! Construction took from 16th to 18th centuries.

You have to see this for your self to understand how beautiful it really is. We paid the $9 Euro fee to enter and it was well worth the price. Everywhere you look there is splendid grandeur. Make sure you take the time to visit the side altars. Each one tells a story of a moment in time and the statues are unbelievable. This is a must visit Church.

Who ever said that a Cathedral was a dump? yea nobody. Almost pointless to review it cause anyone would just say "stunning". which it is. Some selected nights you can pay to go up to the roof. And it's awesome up there. You can enter the Cathedral's ground floor for 5 euros. I live here so I never pay, I sneak in during a bank holiday when it's open to the public. But what is great about this Cathedral.. is that it is unfinished. And had it been finished, America may not have existed. From Wikipedia: The south tower remains unfinished. A plaque at the base of the tower states that funds raised by the parish to finish it were used instead to help those British colonies which became the United States to gain their independence from Great Britain. So they used the money that was set aside to finish the Cathedral and gave it to help America fight the British. And it's still unfinished today.

This imposing cathedral is located right next to our AC hotel. It's very well maintained. On this sunny bright day we walked by it several times admiring its impressive architectural structure. We did not go in since we had seen enough church interiors in Seville. With limited time to cover all the major sights in Malaga in an afternoon before going on to Ronda, Granada and Marbella and Picasso and Alcazaba beckoning, we reluctantly passed on touring the inside of this majestic cathedral.

Truly stunning cathedral, both inside and out. The interior is incredible with amazing ceilings and side chapels. There is a small charge to get in (€5) but more than worth it. A definite highlight of a stay in Malaga.

Probably the biggest church I've ever been inside. It's worth the euros to see this sort of grandeur. The stained glass is beautiful but very high up so almost impossible to fully view.
