This municipality brings together a large number of elements of interest, to such an extent that it has become one of the most important tourist centers on the Costa del Sol.
Its scenic beauty ranges from the spectacular mountains, to the sea, with stupendous beaches, through the fertility of its orchards, which turn this area into a veritable orchard.
In addition to this, Nerja has unforgettable places such as the Cueva de Nerja, one of the most beautiful and most visited in Spain, of great archaeological value; the cliffs of Maro, declared a Natural Site; and, within the city, the Balcón de Europa or the Church of El Salvador.
History
Its current name comes from the Arabic Narija or Naricha, and is in turn a derivation of a Roman term. There are various remains from Roman times, such as a section of the old road that linked Sexi (Amuñécar) with Caviclum (Torrox) and a bridge that would serve as communication with the Roman city of Detunda (Maro).
But the presence of man in these lands dates back to the Upper Paleolithic, as evidenced by the human remains found in the Cueva de Nerja.
In the 10th century it is described as a large farmhouse in the middle of a field of mulberry trees and leafy orchards. Famous for its production of finely crafted silk fabrics.
The town was protected by a strong castle, the remains of which can still be seen on the road to Frigiliana.
Nerja is a small fishing and agricultural village in Málaga.
