On the walk through historical Center from the city of Málaga, cathedral occupies a preferential place during your visit.
But do you know why Cathedral of the Incarnation of Malaga the people of Malaga call her the little arm?
It won't be difficult for you to guess when you see the imposing building…unfinished.
Indeed, the Malaga Cathedral Construction began in 1528 and its works lasted for 250 years.
But even so, the cathedral building remained unfinished, the most significant being the lack of the south tower which was initially planned by the architect and sculptor Diego of Siloam.
Other elements that were not completed are a balustrade that was planned to be built at the top of the building, as well as other decorative elements.
The truth is that seeing the facades of Malaga Cathedral, a building that began as an architectural style Gothic and ended up mixing styles Renaissance y baroque, the complex construction process that took place until the end of the 18th century is not hidden.
