HISTORY AND ORIGIN OF THE MONDRAGON PALACE

Built in the 14th century by order of King Abomelik, the Palace of Mondragon was initially designed as a residence for the Muslim governors of the city. Its name derives from Mondragon, the surname of one of the last owners of noble origin who lived there in the 18th century. Over the centuries, the palace has witnessed numerous historical events and has been home to different noble families, leaving a deep imprint on the history of Ronda.

Also, located in the heart of Ronda’s old town, it is a magnificent example of Andalusian Mudejar architecture.
