Plaza de toros La Malagueta
Description
Close to Malagueta beach, we find the capital's majestic bullring, Plaza de toros La Malagueta, designed by Joaquín Rucoba. Its construction work started in 1874 and was interrupted, only to be resumed the next year and inaugurated in June 1876. The bullring, built in Neo-Mudejar style and with a seating capacity of 15,000, has seen glorious bullfights starring great bullfighters like Curro Romero, Manolete and El Cordobes. The famous and young bullfighter, Javier Conde, has also fought bulls here.
