Monuments and Art > Remarkable Building

On the northeast side of the town, in Calle de la Glorieta, between the Spa and the Bullring, stands the building which is home to the village’s present-day town hall.

The inhabitants of Carratraca call it the “casa árabe” (The Arab House), an apparent reference to the Neo-Mudejar style in which it was built on the orders of Trinidad Grund de Herédia around the year 1885. Initially a holiday home for herself and her family, it belonged to the upper echelon of the Málaga bourgeoisie.

It also included a tower built in the same style that gave access to the complex and a garden area. The tower, however, collapsed in 1963. In 1991, the building was restored, and works were started to build a new tower and make significant improvements to the gardens.

Since its restoration, the ground floor has been used as an exhibition hall, the assembly and archive room occupying the first floor and the second floor being devoted to offices and other rooms.
