Walk through three churches to focus on the Renaissance architecture of Santa Iglesia Catedral Basílica de la Encarnación de Málaga. Begin by examining the cathedral’s monumental design and architectural details, then use the two other churches as comparison points for understanding Málaga’s historic religious architecture. This focused route is worthwhile for seeing how the cathedral stands within a wider group of historic churches.

How a walk works

The guide starts talking when you arrive.

This page is the map and the itinerary. The app is the guide who walks it with you.

  1. Pick a walk

    Every stop is a real place, already in walking order.

  2. Pocket your phone

    Follow the line on the live map, or download the walk before you lose signal.

  3. Listen as you arrive

    On a narrated walk the story starts on its own at each stop, so your eyes stay on the place.
