mural e — MURAL: Map available to the public

MALAGA’S baroque murals are easier than ever to find thanks to a new interactive map.

More than 60 of the historic murals have been geotagged by Monumental Malaga, a group dedicated to celebrating the city’s historic monuments.

It comes after the association held a photo contest of the best 18th-century murals in the city.

First place, with a cash prize of €300, went to Simon Flynn and his photo of The Five Balls.

Second, went to La Casa del Obispo by Nina Rodriguez and third went to The Tower of San Felipe by Feliciano Ruy.

You can see the interactive map on Monumental Malaga’s website.
