The Old Town of Ronda is surrounded by massive ancient fortress walls with two arched stone gates – the 13th century Islamic Puerta de Almocábar and the 16th-century Puerta de Carlos V. Located next to the Plaza Ruedo de Alameda, the Puerta de Almocábar is the main gateway to the Old Town and is named after the Arabic word ‘Al-maqabir,’ meaning ‘cemetery’ which was located outside the city walls. Puerta de Almocábar is a beautiful example of traditional Islamic architecture.
